The Hopi Tribe Office of the Chairman offered a statement in response to the Aug. 5 announcement by the Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA) of the release of contaminants

from the Colorado Gold King Mine in Silverton, Colorado into the Animas River.

The EPA was doing an investigation of the

Gold King Mine to assess the on-going water

releases from the mine and assess the feasibility of further mine remediation when the water

began leaking above the mine tunnel. It is estimated that over 3 million+ gallons of stored

water has spilled into the Animas River.

A Press Release dated Aug. 11 from the

Office of Hopi Chairman Herman G. Honanie stated, “the discharge of contaminants

(from the Gold King Mine) will not impact

the drinking water on the Hopi Reservation.

Hopi drinking sources are not located near the

affected area. The Hopi Tribe will continue to

monitor this situation in coordination with the

federal agencies and inform the public if any

risk is posed to the Hopi public.”

The discharge continues to move downstream

and into the San Juan and Colorado Rivers, and

may affect the Ute Tribe and Navajo Nation.

Continued from P1. Honyumptewa at U.N.

The first Hopi statement was made on Agenda Item #4 that addressed the

business practices of international auction houses, repositories and museums. The statement includes a commitment for fair, transparent and effective mechanisms for access to and repatriation of ceremonial objects in the

international arena. The SARLU EVE and Conseil des Ventes Volontaires

(CVV) auction house has never allowed the Hopi Tribe to have access to

the katsina friends, nor an open, transparent dialogue for an examination of

provenance or to identify the origin of the katsina friends. The Hopi statement also recommended the adoption of a document “Guiding Principles

on Business and Human Rights” implementing the United Nations ‘Protect,

Respect and Remedy Framework’. Chief Honyumptewa stated, “States

should set out clearly the expectation that all business enterprises domiciled

in their territory and/or jurisdiction respect human rights throughout their

operations” and “Such practices are not only a violation of human rights

and international law, but the traditional and tribal law of the Hopi Tribe”.

The second Hopi statement was made on Agenda Item #7 addressing the

study and advice on the promotion and protection on the rights of Indigenous

peoples with respect to cultural heritage. The World Conference on Indigenous Peoples in Operative Paragraph 27 specifically calls for the creation

of mechanisms for international repatriation. The creation of these mechanisms should be considered within the cultural heritage study, in particular,

the practical aspects of its implementation, including: 1) the entity that will

oversee this implementation and monitor its progress among nation-states

and business entities; 2) ongoing funding; and 3) how the UNEMRIP will ensure the human rights of Indigenous Peoples are maintained throughout this

process. This statement calls for the creation of mechanisms for international

repatriation and sets out steps and a Working Group to accept grievances,

investigate and return to the countries of origin. The request of the Arizona

Congressional Delegation and supporting U.S. Tribal Resolutions were submitted to the United Nations EMRIP at this time.

The third Hopi statement was made on Agenda Item #9 in support of

the Association of American Indian Affairs and the Kingdom of Hawaii

for the study on Indigenous International repatriation, focusing on the

concerns expressed by Indigenous Peoples and seeking a response from

states, museums, collectors, private auction houses and other repositories. These concerns include 1) failure to consult with Indigenous

Peoples, 2) no evidence of consent to hold sacred objects of cultural

patrimony, 3) refusal to provide supporting archival and documents to

assist with identifications, 4) failure to repatriate or engage in communications towards repatriation, 5) placement of preservation conditions

on repatriations and 6) forcing Indigenous Peoples to buy back their

ancestors, sacred and ceremonial objects. These egregious and ongoing

human rights violations occurred in the past and continue today.

The fourth statements were made at the side session, “ Reversing the

sacred objects, and objects of cultural patrimony. Inclusive within this

industry are the auction houses and the French government through the

SARLU EVE and Conseil des Ventes Volontaires (CVV) that sold Katsina Friends, which are sacred objects and objects of cultural patrimony

to the Hopi Tribe, in 2013, 2014 and 2015. The repatriation of Katsina Friends was supported by U.S. Senators and Representatives, the

Hualapai Tribe, Acoma Pueblo, and the Pueblo of Zuni, among others.

Pit Bulls attack Polacca resident while out on walk

Crystal Dee

Hopi Tutuveni

Milton Poola was out for a walk in Polacca at about

7:15pm on June 15 when he was attacked by two black

pit bulls coming from the south and two brown pit bulls

from the north. The dogs came toward Poola barking aggressively and Poola knew he was in trouble and outnumbered. He couldn’t defend himself as one of the black pit

bulls lunged at Poola followed by the two brown pit bulls

that began biting his right leg. While the dogs attacked

Poola he struggled to stay on his feet so he wouldn’t fall

because and he knew the dogs would gain advantage and

he would be done. There was an embankment nearby and

Poola rolled onto it to try getting away, but the dogs ran

up from the side and began attacking again.

“I could feel them biting into my flesh,” said Poola. “I

yelled for help when I sensed someone standing in their

doorway on the south side; two or three kids came out of the

house but they didn’t do anything. I know they heard me.”

Poola was trying to figure how to get to the porch of a

house nearby and looked for sticks, stones, barbed wire

or anything to fend off the dogs, but there was nothing in

sight. He kept kicking and trying to fight off the dogs as

best he could, when he heard a car screeching to a stop.

A woman and her son were driving by when they saw

Poola being attacked. The mother and son chased the

dogs away. Poola said he was thankful they showed up

at that moment because he felt weak and his adrenaline

was wearing off. He assessed his injuries and felt blood

running down his legs and arms. The woman got a shirt

from her car and wrapped Poola’s arm and drove him to

the Hopi Health Care Center. The woman’s son stayed

behind to find out who the dogs belonged to.

When he arrived at the clinic, Poola was in shock trying

to comprehend what had just happened. He said he didn’t

feel the severity of his injuries until the nurses began

cleaning his wounds and he saw fatty tissue coming out.

“My wounds looked like shrapnel wounds,” said Poola. “That’s what it felt like or what I compared it to.”

When his wounds were cleaned, he felt the pain. Poola

said a Contract Doctor on duty assessed his wounds and

felt he needed surgery because there were many deep

wounds. Before he was airlifted to Flagstaff Medical

Center that evening; nurses administered pain medication along with Tetanus and hemoglobin shots.

Poola gave his statement to a the BIA Police Officer

who took pictures of his wounds and told him he would

talk with the Hopi Prosecutors Office and follow up with

him. To date Poola, said he has not heard from the officer.

He didn’t need surgery after all but his wounds were

cleaned again then stapled; a total of 16 on his right elbow. He was discharged from the FMC on June 16 in the

early morning and had no way of getting home because

he had been airlifted to the hospital. HHCC sends patients out to contract hospitals but do not follow-up on

their discharge, nor do they provide transportation back

home. They essentially leave them stranded, unless family members make arrangements to pick them.

“I wanted to go home and I saw a cab driver and I

asked him to drive me home,” said Poola. “I paid a couple hundred dollars, but I was glad to be home.”

The aftermath of the situation has left Poola visibly

upset and has thought of taking matters into his own

hand by finding the dogs and killing them. He has since

been looking for the dogs but and has not been able to

locate them, but did find out who they belonged to.

After three weeks had gone by, he contacted Catherine Wright of the Hopi Tribe’s General Counsel’s office.

Poola said he knew Wright was working on the Hopi

Small Animal Control Ordinance. He learned that the

Resolution was signed but not presented to Hopi Tribal

Council (HTC). On July 31, he was invited to a meeting

regarding the Small Animal Control Ordinance facilitated by the new Public Health Compliance Officer, Madeline Sahneyah. At the meeting they discussed the Ordinance said Poola, and but to his dismay, there were no

HTC members and also felt that Law Enforcement Services should be involved in the discussion. At the meeting, Poola offered some suggestions on how dog owners

should be penalized. His suggestions were to have dog

owners be fined $1000 and put in jail for one and a half

years and have the dog euthanized; or $5000 fine and put

in jail for a year and put the dog owners pictures out in

the public like they do sex offenders.

“God forbid this happens to a tourist,” said Poola.

“They can sue the tribe or the village.”

Poola said he would like HTC to pass the Small Animal Control Ordinance because it is imperative. He said

he is sure they can find funds to support the Ordinance.

Poola is not completely healed as he still experiences

pain where he was bitten and had to get Rabies treatment

that consists of several shots.

SMDS students receive school supplies on their first day back

Children in Ms. Holly Laban’s 2nd grade class pose with their backpacks of school supplies

Deborah Secakuku Baker, Interventionist

Second Mesa Day School

“Strengthening our Future”, is the motto adopted

by Second Mesa Day School (SMDS) for the 2015-16

school year! This motto was evident the first day of

school, August 12, 2015 by the incredible staff and administration that has been assembled for the school year

and by the 300 + students that have been enrolled this

year from grades Kindergarten to Sixth Grade.

Students brought smiles and excitement as they returned from the summer months to see old friends and

meet new ones. Parents were just as happy to see other

parents; hugs and handshakes could be seen and teachers

greeted their classes with great enthusiasm!

“Strength for the Future” also comes to SMDS from

the non-profit organization, Partnerships With Native

Americans (PWNA) formally, National Relief Charities

based in Phoenix, Arizona. PWNA supports Native

families and students throughout the United States by

providing donations of household items and toiletries on

a monthly basis. These items are presented to families

at the end of every Parent Advisory Committee meeting

held on the second Wednesday night of each month at

Students from Ms. Youvella’s 4th Grade Class

SMDS. (Contact: Ms. Harriet Tenario, Parent Liasion)

On this first day of school the PWNA provided school

supplies of paper, pencils, colored pencils, erasers, pencil sharpeners and a drawstring bag for each student. In

addition SMDS provided each student with brand new

backpacks emblazed with the school’s name and mascot.

SMDS offers a generous Thank you to the Partnership

With Native Americans and the SMDS School board for

supporting our student body! We also welcome individuals, programs and organizations to join our SMDS family. Together we “ Strengthen Our Future.” Go Bobcats!

Have a Great School Year!

Kykotsmovi Village Outlines Village Priorities and Concerns

Crystal Dee

Hopi Tutuveni

The Kykotsmovi village has a governing body that includes a Governor, Village Board of Directors (BOD) and

Hopi Tribal Council (HTC) Representatives who are elected by a voting process and all serve two year terms. HTC

Representatives are Nada Talayumptewa, Miona Kaping,

Aldon Mooya and Norman Honanie. Talayumptewa and

Honanie’s terms are ending in November. Village Governor is Anthony Puhuyesva; BOD members are Chairwoman Jerolyn Takala; Vice Chair Cheryl Tootsie; Dawn

Humetewa; Velleda Sidney; Gladys Onsae; Elizabeth

Nasewytewa and Phillip Quochytewa.

The Village Administration is overseen by the Community Service Administrator (CSA) Gloria Lomahaftewa.

As CSA, Lomahaftewa develops goals and objectives

and oversees a budget of $375,000 which is appropriated to all villages each year from the Hopi Tribe’s H-13

funds. Her goal is to maintain a strong village and provide services, such as water and sewer to the village and

businesses, two schools, store, tribal government, post

office and the Hopi Foundation. The village uses their

funds for maintenance of water and sewer; community

buildings and vehicles; youth and elderly programs and

supplies. The village has a total of seven employees all

paid by Tribal Allocation funding and elected officials,

excluding HTC Representatives, receive a stipend paid

by community carryover funds. Lomahaftewa said a ma-

jority of the funds is used on maintenance of water and

sewer.

Village issues/concerns: 1) One water well pump

stopped working: to date it has been fixed, but tests are

still being conducted; 2) Street repairs and safety: the

village has had issues with traffic through the villages

where motorist are speeding and not cognizant of residents and children in the area. 3) Animal control: there

has been an increase in stray animals in the village. The

village along with the Coconino Humane Society did a

round-up of stray dogs; a total of 69 dogs and puppies

were picked up; 4) Abandoned building and vehicles is

another issue the village is dealing with, as they can become hazardous to the community.

Current priorities: get another water tank and upgrade

the small water pump, repair the streets, improve playground for children, improve traffic control, establish a

new store, complete bus stops and work with the schools

to have one common bus stop for children in the village.

“There are six buses that come through the village to

pick up students and it is becoming a safety issue,” said

Lomahaftewa. “Along with the buses are tribal employees coming through the village; it’s a concern.”

The village is working with the Kykotsmovi Economic Board (KEB) in locating an office space they will use

during the construction of the new Village Store. The

KEB oversees the Village Store which generates money

for the village. The village received donations from KEB

two years ago and was used to establish a water meter

system. Members of the board are Talayumptewa, Kaping, Fred Shupla and Lionel Puhuyesva.

Other services the village offers its members are food

boxes from the food bank two times a month, community activities and holiday activities, summer and elder

youth programs and bulk item pickups. Every year the

village designates a day where they have a village clean

up and community members can drop off big items at

the designated area. The village has one major event that

occurs annually and brings a lot of vendors to the community is the Annual Christmas Parade. Lomahaftewa

said the money generated from the parade helps to offset the cost of the parade. Aside from the parade are the

ceremonies that are held according to the Hopi calendar.

The proposed 10% cut that was agreed by the Hopi

Tribal Council last year due to the projected income declining will result in the villages losing some funds said

Lomahaftewa. “All the CSA’s have their own prospective regarding the cut,” Lomahaftewa said the cut will

definitely impact them because they use their funds to

operate water and sewer, maintenance of village buildings and vehicles. Although they have been able to operate under that amount since the amount gone up a couple years ago it will still affect them because there will

be situations that come up, such as the water issue. She

added that the CSA’s have written a letter to council to

saying they don’t want a cut in their budget, but says

they haven’t gotten a response from them.

ASU’s Tribal Nations Tour

makes stop at Hopi High

Submitted by:

Stan Bindell

Arizona State University’s Tribal Nations Tour was part of the back-to-school

assembly on the first day of school, Aug.

11, at Hopi Jr/Sr High School.

ASU Tribal Nations Tour Moderator Victor Begay said they already had

stopped at Mingus High School in Cottonwood, but had several other stops

coming up including First Mesa, Leupp,

Kayenta and Tuba City.

Begay told the students that 70 percent

of Native Americans graduate from high

school, only ten percent go onto college

and only one percent of that ten percent

will graduate from college.

“We want to change those numbers,”

he said. “We want you to be ready. Your

job is to show up for school every day,

work hard and do your homework.”

Begay said he would like students to attend ASU, but if they don’t he urged them

to go to college somewhere.

Shaundiin Parrish, second attendant to

Miss Indian Arizona, bragged that ASU

has the largest Native American population among any college in the nation. She

told the Hopi Jr/Sr High School students

that Northland Pioneer College is a good

place to start because it’s local.

Miss Indian ASU Brooke Overturf,

who graduated from St. Michaels High

School, told the students to ask questions,

start strong and finish strong. She is majoring in computer engineering at ASU.

Miss Hopi Auri Roy said speaking to

start the year is awkward because she’s

getting old. She said education does not

stop after high school as students should

plan on attending college, so she urged

her fellow students to take advantage

of every opportunity. Roy said students

should get involved with sports and make

this a year of memories.

Hopi Jr/Sr High School Superintendent Gregory Sackos said students should

make this year one of the most memorable in their lives. He said it begins with

relationship building.

“Seniors, this year will be what you

make of it,” he said.

Hopi High Principal Charles Gover

told the students that the passing period

between classes will be four minutes this

school year.

“Back in the day, Coach Baker ran the

mile in four minutes,” he said. “if you’re

not in shape to make it in four minutes

you can take JROTC or PE.”

Gover said the consequence for tardies

is after-school detention.

Hopi Jr/Sr High School adopted a

homeroom for this school from 8:30-9

a.m., so students will have a chance to

work on their planners, attendance, tardies and test scores. He added that disciplinary infractions carries over from each

year to the next.

Gover said the students are being prepared to take the place of the long-time

serving staff members such as Gerald

Flud, Harvey Honyouti and Rick Baker.

“Those are some awesome folks,” he said.

Gover commended the cafeteria for

having the best food.

Hopi Junior High Principal Fernando

Madrid, who previously served as assistant superintendent at Peach Springs, said

each student will do their best academically for seventh and eighth grade. He

said athletes need to remember that they

are students first.

Huma learns from ASU

Hopi High School student

summer Journalism Institute reflects on summer activities

Jennifer Huma

HHS Bruin Times

This summer I had the amazing opportunity to attend Arizona State University

Walter Cronkite School of Journalism

and Mass Communication summer high

school journalism institute and it was one

of the best journalism experiences I have

had.

My first few days at ASU were busy but

fun. All students sat in on presentations

by important professional journalists that

covered a variety of stories in their career. Each individual gave essential information to our group and motivated us to

continue our work as high school student

journalists.

I was assigned to the digital media

group with several other talented student

journalists from Arizona schools. We focused on doing video camera interviews,

editing them and then producing a written

story and posting it on our website, The

Pitchfork Post.

Dave Cornelius, a journalism professor

Micah Chee

HHS Bruin Times

at the ASU Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication, taught us

all we needed to know about the digital

world of journalism. It was an eye-opening experience staying at a college campus and meeting deadlines for my stories.

It was a challenge, but a good challenge

that I now know what to expect when I go

to college.

As our days went by to the end of our

summer journalism institute, all of the

students left with a new view of journalism. Some said maybe it wasn’t just fit for

them to continue, but most had a positive

view and said they will continue with

journalism whether it was broadcasting or

digital work.

Every single moment at ASU was fantastic for me. I gained knowledge about

communications thanks to counselors,

professors, students and advisors at

Cronkite, and I hope to share it with those

who also have an interest in journalism.

The major activity I did this summer

was work with my grandpa. He taught me

how to paint.

While working with my grandpa for the

summer, we managed to paint Headstarts.

The two Headstarts we painted were in

Hardrock and in Chinle. While working

with my grandpa, I learned multiple skills.

The skills I learned are mostly painting

related. I learned how to clean a pump

that sprays paint. Also, I learned to paint

with a roller. I learned that working is all

part of growing up.

Having a job is all part of growing up.

Being an adult means having bills and

when you have a job it makes meeting

payments easier. Working with my grandpa has shown me that I have lots of responsibilities.

With the money that I earned while

working, I used it to buy myself school

clothes. I also used it to buy myself school

supplies. With funds I had left, I saved it

for emergencies or to have fun.

Hopi Foundation presents Part 2 of 2015Mid Year Report

Natwani Coalition

The Natwani Coaliton's activity to date includes the bi-monthly airing of the Hopi

Farm Talk show on KUYI Hopi Radio, the revisions of the Hopi Natwani for Youth

Curriculum, and support of the 2015 Hopi Farmers Market & Exchange event. With

guidance and direction of our Community Advisory Board, the activities bring about

issues facing our local Hopi food system and agricultural traditions.

28 years since its founding in 1987. This exercise allowed participants to walk through

history of not only The Hopi Foundation's activities but also identify the changes that

have occurred in the Hopi community overall. These changes helped to frame understanding of the decisions that shaped the growth and activities of the Foundation.

Day two began the reporting from each project of the Foundation to share the journey that each have taken in their own development and provide an update to their

current goals to strengthen their services both short- and long-term. Capacity Building

Director Marissa Nuvayestewa and Diane Yazzie presented the Financial Sustainability Matrix model that The Hopi Foundation will be using to launch the next phase of its

internal capacity building work that will support our growth and development.

Day three of the planning session challenged participants to develop a 50-year strategic vision through consensus building workshops and working together to further

define a focus that The Hopi Foundation can follow over the next 2 generations of its

growth. Monica Nuvamsa, Executive Director of HF, elaborates that "Planning is a

traditional practice we do naturally as clan members, caretakers, and as community

and cultural stewards. Being able to map out our future for the next 2 generations may

seem lofty for others, but due to our cultural history we have built the capacity to think

long-term and strategically how we want to make a difference for our community.

Due to the serious economic challenges that our community is currently facing, we

need to affirm our role in this work and build capacity within to meet our part of that

challenge."

HF Hosts 2015 Mandela Washington Fellows

Youth Farm Talk Interns on-air live

This summer a partnership between our program and KUYI Hopi Radio created the

first ever Youth Farm Talk held on July 16th. Youth interns worked together for three

weeks to produce and create content on the topics of food and farming. Five youth

interns from the Hopi community: Brady Namoki, Ezra Albert, Mariah Namingha,

Yoiwmana Pooyouma, and Timothy Grover participated in this first pilot youth program. Our heartfelt thanks to the community and KUYI volunteer Tim Nuvayaoma in

helping our younger generations who want to continue learning the significance of our

traditional way of life through farming and agriculture. Kudos to the youth who also

did a awesome job in sparking that conversation to keep learning.

The Natwani Coalition invites you to join any or all upcoming events:

August 15, September 19, and October 3: Hopi Farmers Market & Exchange

at the Hopi Veterans Memorial Center from 8am to 2pm.

•

September 17 - Hopi Farm Talk on KUYI Hopi Radio

•

Last but definitely not least, we say farewell to Natwani Coalition Program Manager, Samantha Antone. Samantha is now returning to the Hopi school system as a second grade teacher at First Mesa Elementary School. Over her 5 years of working for

the Natwani Coalition, she led the completion of the Hopi Natwani for Youth Curriculum, broadened our relationships within the community and among other indigenous

groups advocating for food security, and expanded programming in our community

to uplift and strengthen Hopi agriculture and foods. We give our heartfelt thanks to

her hard work she placed into her work that will carry this program into the future.

Askwali! Kwa Kwa!

To our Natwani Coalition friends: I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude

to all who have influenced, molded, and guided me. I was so lucky to have such great

teachers and mentors to help me culturally and professionally grow. Thank you for

allowing me into your life and accepting me with open arms in this workplace. I will

forever carry the lessons, all the many stories and important knowledge you have

given me. Askwali, Kuna'a!" Samantha Antone

Hopi Substance Abuse Prevention Center (HSAPC)

In March, HSAPC initiated a youth mentoring group using the American Community Corrections Institute (ACCI) curriculum. The eight week study group guides

self-directed learning and challenges participants to explore, evaluate and take ownership over their choices and discover their own solutions. ACCI is just one set of tools

HSAPC Mentors use in providing education to our clients. The youth and their families celebrated at end of the program when each participant shared their experiences

with their parents and family members. Parents and family shared how students are

being more cooperative and helpful at home. Through the generosity of our donors

HSAPC is able to provide for the costs of all material and certificates of completion

to the students.

Mandela Fellows with HF Executive Director Monica Nuvamsa (ctr)

On Saturday, July 29, The Hopi Foundation hosted 25 guests from various countries

of Africa who are part of the 2015 Mandela Washington Fellowship Program. Each

participant was selected for their community and civic leadership work and many

represented non-governmental organizations based in their home countries.

The visit took place at The Hopi Foundation in Kykotsmovi, Arizona and joined

by other local nonprofit organizations including the 2015-2016 Miss Hopi 2nd Attendant who performed a Hopi Water Maiden Dance as part of a cultural exchange

with the fellows.All participants joined to share commonalities in addressing social

and economic needs of their communities. Given the diversity among the fellows,

each expressed their learning from one another and the unique challenges that they

share culturally or regionally across their communities. The fellows learned about

the culturally-based approaches that The Hopi Foundation and its partners engage

community in their advocacy, programs, or services. Each fellow also expressed their

appreciation to experience an indigenous community of the U.S. as for many, this was

their first visit.

Upon returning to Africa, the Fellows continue to build the skills they have developed during their time in the U.S. through U. S. Embassies, four Regional Leadership

Centers, the YALI Network, and customized programming from USAID and affiliated partners. Through their fellowship, Mandela Washington Fellows have access to

professional development opportunities, mentoring networking and training, and seed

funding to support their ideas, businesses and organizations.

The Hopi Foundation thanks the following community partners for their participation: Hopi Tewa Women's Coalition to End Abuse, DNA Hopi Legal Services, Lori

Piestewa Post 80 Veterans Organization, Hopi Credit Association, Hopi Opportunity

Youth Initiative, Hopi Substance Abuse Prevention Center, Hopi Leadership Program

and ASU College of Public Service and Community Solutions.

HSAPC Staff Member Racheal Povatah with the Be Hopi, Be Healthy Camp kids

In July, HSAPC participated in the "Be Hopi, Be Healthy Camp". Mentors Racheal

Povatah and Shawn Namoki provided learning activities on communication and leadership using interactive games to encourage youth to make healthy decisions.

We would like to acknowledge the accomplishments of our very own HSAPC Mentor, Shawn Namoki, Sr., Who completed Level 1 Certification as a Suicide Prevention

Trainer. He plans to share this information with our Hopi community to help shed

light on the need for a Crisis Response Team when dealing with a death by suicide.

We at HSPAC look forward to learning more from Shawn and working to strengthen

our local support network to help prevent the contagion of suicide from occurring and

spreading in our community. Follow us on our HSAPC Facebook page to see our up

to date news and activities.

HF Strategic Planning Session, a Vision of 50 Years

The Hopi Foundation hosted a Strategic Planning Session on April 19-21, 2015 at

the Kykotsmovi Village Community Building. The session was facilitated by Lesley

Kabotie of Indigenous Collaboration Consulting of Denver, CO and Susan Secakuku

of Sipaulovi Village. A special presentation was provided by Diane Devine-Yazzie,

Executive Director of the Phoenix-based Native American Connections.

Day one included former Foundation leadership, staff and special guests to help create a historical timeline of the work that the Foundation was engaged in over the past
