Alaska

Organizations

In 2003, there were at least 590 associations represented in the state. There are no major national organizations based in Alaska. The largest statewide organization, the Alaska Federation of Natives, with headquarters in Anchorage, represents the state's Eskimos, Aleuts, and Indians. The Maniilaq Association, based in Kotzebue, is another tribal organization serving native Eskimos.

Environmental groups include the Alaska Conservation Alliance, the Alaska Conservation Foundation, the Alaska Geographic Society, and the Alaska Wildlife Alliance. Arts and culture are represented in part by the Alaska Historical Society.
