We respectfully acknowledge that our conference will be taking place on the homelands of the Coast Salish peoples, who continue to steward these lands and waters as they have since time immemorial. We recognize the tribal nations and organizations who actively create, shape, and contribute to our thriving community in the Pacific Northwest, in Seattle, at Seattle University, and beyond. In recognition and furtherance of these invaluable contributions to our community, we ask that all participants in the conference exhibit a high degree of personal integrity at all times and adhere to Seattle University and UnKnot Conference policies and procedures.
