Native American People of the Plains and Beyond (NAPPB), a 501c3 non-profit organization, was established in September 2021 with four main:

1. To foster fellowship among Native Americans and interested non-Native Americans in Lubbock and the surrounding area.

2. To educate and raise public awareness about Native Americans in the region.

3. To preserve Native American culture.

4. To promote traditional conservation practices.

Membership includes registered tribal members, individuals of Native American descent who are not registered, and non-Natives with a genuine interest in and respect for Native American culture.

The association was chartered by the State of Texas on September 10, 2021, as a non-profit organization. It received 501c3 accreditation on September 11, 2023, and is classified as a public charity. While the association aims to educate the public about Native culture and traditions, it is not a protest group. Members may express their personal opinions but cannot speak on behalf of the entire organization.

Meetings are held on the third Saturday of each month from 12:00 to 3:00 PM at Hollingsworth Hall Cultural Center, 4228 Boston Avenue, Lubbock, TX. Notices are sent out 10 days before the meeting date. The Board of Directors meets one hour before the general meeting.

Recent activities in 2025 include receiving grants from H.E.B. Corporation, Hollingsworth Hall Cultural Center, along with joining the Lubbock Cultural Arts Foundation and Civic Lubbock, participating in the Hi Five Celebration on September 6, 2025, with an informational booth and product sales, serving meals to first responders in May, assisting a Texas Tech student with her design showcase, and hosting a conservation presentation by Mr. Garrett Cowan.
