Fawn Sharp: “If a Tribal Nation says we have a sacred site, this is where we have an identity, the United States must honor that.”

We will be seeking to increase prevention efforts, increase treatment and then also provide enhanced enforcement.

As the 117th Congress commences, Indian Country is in a national emergency that while intensified by the COVID-19 pandemic has its roots in the Federal Government's neglect of its fiduciary obligations to Indian Country.

Please join us in sending this message that domestic violence, sexual assault, child abuse, elder abuse, stalking and trafficking will not be tolerated on our tribal lands.

We believe that implementing standards for the UN Declaration means that the United States no longer has the permission nor the power to unilaterally make decisions that affects our lands, our people and our resources.
