Foundation House respectfully acknowledges that it resides on the land of the Siwanoy peoples.  They have lived harmoniously with these lands and waters for countless generations before the onslaught of colonization.  Like Indigenous Peoples across the Americas (and most of the world), they experienced genocide, ethnic cleansing, theft of their land and waters, and forced removal.  Our ability to live, work and enjoy this land is connected to their deep loss.  At Foundation House we strive to respect the history of the land and ask that all those who come to Foundation House do the same.  Part of the mission of Foundation House is to create an environment where shedding light on issues of social justice is encouraged.  To that end, Foundation House has provided reading materials for those who would like to learn more about the history of the land below.
