Friends Phoenix Land Acknowledgement
Friends of the Children - Phoenix humbly recognizes that our chapter operates on lands that have been the ancestral home of Indigenous peoples for countless generations. The Indigenous history of Phoenix, Arizona spans thousands of years, with the Hohokam culture leaving their mark through innovative irrigation systems. Presently, the region is home to various Native American tribes, notably the Akimel O'odham and the Tohono O'odham, who greatly contribute to the vibrant cultural tapestry of Phoenix. We hold deep reverence for the enduring connection between many Indigenous communities and their traditional lands, diligently cared for throughout history. Our commitment is to listen and collaborate with Indigenous voices, actively working towards a more inclusive and equitable society.
