Description: 

We hope this report may provide the basis for a new, increased degree of involvement and collaboration by tribal leaders, activists, citizens, and our allies in the debate over the Farm Bill. If we work together, Native Americans on reservations and in urban areas alike can take another important step forward in controlling our own economic, nutritional, cultural and spiritual destinies.
