Welcoming, Witnessing, and Empowering You and Your Experience: Compassionate Care for Growth and Healing _____ “Rarely, if ever, are any of us healed in isolation. Healing is an act of communion.” — Bell Hooks _____ Land Acknowledgement We are located on various stolen Lands that are sacred to a number of Indigenous Peoples, including but not limited to Tribes, Nations, and Peoples such as: Multnomah, Wasco, Cowlitz, Kathlamet, Clackamas, Coast Salish, Stillaguamish, and Duwamish. Land acknowledgment is only one small part of supporting Indigenous communities. I hope this land acknowledgment statement will inspire others to stand with us in solidarity with Native nations.
