A Word from the Inter-Tribal-Council
|
It is great to see so many come together to share. It is also good to see the love and respect shown
for each other as our family continues to grow. This is how it was intended to be.
Currently
ITV has 4 Tribal Council Members, consisting of 2 men and 2 woman. The members of the Tribal Council
are LongKnife, Small Mountain, Paula Redhawk, and Little Wing. The purpose of the Tribal Council is
to intervene in the event that we have issues of concern among the group that need to be addressed on
a more personal level. Although we always take all matters before the family for a vote, sometimes it
becomes necessary to make decisions for the best interest of all members.
If you have any questions,
comments, suggestions, problems or issues that you do not feel comfortable posting to the group you may
contact any one of the Tribal Council members personally.
Peace and Blessings to All!
