The Tongva Taraxat Paxaavxa Conservancy is an Indigenous urban land trust that formed with the objective to return or rematriate land to unrecognized Tongva descendants in the greater Los Angeles County area.[1][2][3] It was inspired by the work of the Sogorea Te’ Land Trust and has been associated with the Land Back movement.[4] The conservancy is notable for its part in the return of Tongva land in Los Angeles County for the first time in nearly 200 years.[2][5] The trust developed a kuuy nahwá’a or "guest exchange" program for people who live and work in the tribe's traditional homelands to financially support the land trust's goals.[6]
