The Center for Career Development acknowledges that the land on which we gather is the territory of the Eastern Pequot (Pea-kwaht), Golden Hill Paugussett (paw-GUS-it), Lenape (Leh-NAH-pay), Mashantucket Pequot (Mash-un-tuck-it Pea-kwaht), Mohegan (Mo-he-gan), Nipmuc and (Nip-muck), and Schaghticoke (ska-teh-COKE) peoples who have stewarded this land throughout the generations. We thank them for their strength and resilience in protecting this land, and aspire to uphold our responsibilities according to their example.
