From the transcript
These visits are an important opportunity to listen, strengthen relationships, and better understand the needs of our communities. Conversations included transitional housing, public safety, the ongoing decline of salmon, substance use services, energy assistance, and other issues important to each community. Thank you to the communities of Ninana and Birch Creek for welcoming us and sharing your experiences, ideas, and vision for the future. We are grateful for the opportunity to learn more about how TCC can continue supporting the goals, priorities, and initiatives of the tribes through strong partnership and ongoing collaboration. Now, turning to election season, it's time to get ready to vote.
