We acknowledge that the land on which our activities take place is part of the unceded traditional territory of the Kanien’keha:ka (Mohawk) people, a longstanding site of gathering and exchange among nations.

We recognize that colonialism has led to the dispossession of Indigenous peoples of their languages, and we are committed to using the languages we know in a  constructive way, ensuring that our words do not further contribute to the erosion of ancestral languages.

If you or your organization wishes to communicate inclusively with one or more Indigenous communities, we encourage you to work with Indigenous translators and interpreters.
