Community Education
Community education plays a vital role in fostering understanding, respect, and support for the Tribe. Tribal members and Muwekma allies offer presentations and land acknowledgements as part of our commitment to raising awareness and support for the tribe’s cultural revitalization, land access, and tribal village efforts.
We welcome opportunities to make land acknowledgements and presentations at various events, institutions, and organizations. If you're interested in hosting a presentation or incorporating a land acknowledgement into your event, please fill out the form below.
While not required, we ask our community education partners for meaningful donation to our organization to support tribal member stipends and ongoing community education and cultural revitalization efforts.
