LANDS WE PROTECT

The Southeast Alaska Land Trust respectfully acknowledges the Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian people as original owners and inhabitants of Southeast Alaska. In our mission to help ensure that highly valued habitat, recreation, open space, and cultural and historic areas continue to thrive for the well-being of each generation, we strive to be consistent with and supportive of the stewardship of these lands by the Indigenous people of the region, recognizing that they have long cared for these lands and their living resources.
