Words written by Strengthening Families Locally, DCYF:

I would like to provide the land acknowledgement that is necessary to honor the region, its people and ancestors. We are meeting physically in Spokane, on the traditional territories of the Interior Salish people, specifically the Spokane peoples but will make mention the various tribes who have celebrated, fought and thrived in this beautiful area. I want to mention the Palus, Colvilles, Wenatchipum, Sahaptin, and even the coastal Salish tribes, Duwamish and Squaxin. I want to including 29 federally recognized tribes of Washington state and the 350+ tribes accounted for and the 16k citizens of Spokane county who identify as Native American in modern day Spokane. Thank you for listening and allowing us all to take this small step toward reconciliation and better relations with this land and all of the people here.
