I live, work, and learn on the traditional lands of the yak titʸu titʸu yak tiłhini Northern Chumash Tribe of San Luis Obispo County and Region. While land acknowledgement is an important starting point, ongoing and consistent action to support indigenous communities is critical. Being an indigenous ally is an ongoing and life-long process. Learn about land acknowledgments and ways to be in solidarity with indigenous nations beyond land acknowledgments.
