Land Acknowledgment

Progress Alaska Civic Fund acknowledges Indigenous Alaskans as the original stewards & caretakers of the land all Alaskans call home. Alaska is on unceded Indigenous territories. We recognize historical trauma as a systemic barrier to equitable participation in the civic process. We work to make it possible for all Alaskans to play their part in deciding our shared future.
