Our Core Values
It is through the cultivation of Indigenous Principles, together with a practice that brings about an elevated emotional connection to the principles, that our values will strengthen over time, and so too, will our culture.
“Times change but principles do not. Times change but lands do not. Times change but our culture and our language remain the same. And that’s what you have to keep intact. It’s not what you wear – it’s what’s in your heart.” — Oren Lyons, Onondaga
These are our core values, those we strive to live and work by on a daily bases.
