We have members across the West, and we acknowledge the multiple First Nations traditional territories where we live, work and play. Our organization is centered in the islands of the mid-Salish Sea. As such we specifically acknowledge our hosts of several nations, collectively the SENĆOŦEN speaking peoples, also referred to as the Malchosen, the Lekwungen, the Semiahmoo, and the T’Sou-ke.
We commit to a decade of decolonization (2034) to address the generations of harm caused as a first step toward reconciliation. We look to share a way forward based on mutual respect and marked by stories of our communities learning together in this time of Truth and Reconciliation.
