Inter-tribal Bonds

We believe that working together with other Nipmuc/k bands and Native American communities contributes to the strength, resilience, and advancement of all of us. Our goals are to:

  1. Boost political advocacy by uniting our voices around common goals, regarding rights, resources, and sovereignty.
  2. Address Common Challenges by working together on issues affecting our shared communities.
  3. Promote Cultural Exchange and Solidarity by providing a way to share traditions, languages, and customs, while maintaining our cultural identities.
  4. Passing Down Traditional Knowledge by fostering collaborations to share traditional knowledge and practices with our future generations
  5. Share Resources and Knowledge to pool resources and expertise and achieve economies of scale.
  6. Build Sustainable Economic Models by leveraging strengths and resources that benefit the businesses and communities we all serve.
  7. Engage in Meaningful Dialogue to open communication between leaders and community members to build a deeper understanding of our shared needs, concerns, and aspirations.

We are committed to working together with our neighboring Nipmuc/k bands and other partners, including our participation working with the Center for Braiding Indigenous Knowledges and Science (CBIKS) for the betterment of us all:
