We are already nearly a third of the way through our volunteer season and have been hard at work out in the community. This week our volunteers skirted a trailer, built a ramp, prepped and planted in our gardens, built beds in our shop and installed four outhouses around the reservation.

I didn’t go expecting transformation. In fact, I went mostly because two friends kept asking me time and again “When ya comin’?”

Putting people in this situation is not ok. It is not justifiable.
