Six Directions is an organization founded in 1994 for students interested in Native American issues. The two founding alums were Brian Brayboy and Desiree Martinez. This organization works with faculty and staff to increase the presence of Native American students at Penn.

Six Directions is pleased to announce the establishment of Penn's new alumni group, the Association of Native Alumni which had their first meeting at Alumni weekend on May 12th at 4 p.m.  We are extremely grateful to Dr. Ann Dapice NU '74 and GR '80 for her leadership in bringing this about. We are also thrilled to have the support of so many alums who have been contacting us from all over to express their joy and support for this organization. To those who have worked to establish native community at Penn over the years and especially to those who have agreed to be on the board of ANA, we thank you and look forward to wonderful new partnerships in the years to come.
