Masami Smith, NAICCO Executive Director, and Ty Smith, NAICCO Project Director, manage the affairs at NAICCO today. Both are tribally enrolled members of The Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs (Oregon); where they were both born and raised. They are married with three children and two grandchildren and have been by each other’s side for 30+ years. Together, they have chosen to combine their life experiences and education to seek out the best possible ways to give back to their Native People, both in Ohio and around Indian Country.
Since 2011, they have had the honor and responsibility of serving as directors at NAICCO. Over the years, they have not only helped maintain the legacy of NAICCO, but they have also revitalized the agency into that of a sound urban Indian center in Ohio. Together, they have been able to positively impact the lives of countless Native American individuals and families. Today, they continue to hold steadfast to their mission work of preserving and restoring balance in the lives of their Native People through traditional, cultural, educational, family, community, and wellness driven values and initiatives, which can be witnessed through NAICCO programs, NAICCO Cuisine, and Land Back NAICCO.
