The National Support Committee was established in 1978 to assist NARF with its public relations and fundraising efforts nationwide. Some of the individuals on the Committee are prominent in the fields of business, entertainment and the arts. Others are advocates for the rights of the underserved. All of the volunteers serving on the Committee are committed to upholding the rights of Native Americans.
