Land Back Acknowledgement

Safe Space Art Therapy & Counseling practices primarily on the stolen territory of the Muscogee (Creek) people. The Muscogee people were repeatedly forced to defend their land at great loss as British, French, and Spanish factions battled for control of the area. Safe Space Art Therapy & Counseling believes it is important to honor the Muscogee people and their history. We are living on land stolen from the Indigenous peoples of Turtle Island by the United States government through campaigns of coercion and genocide. It is our collective responsibility as beneficiaries of these atrocities to bear witness to the historic and ongoing oppression of Indigenous people. Acknowledgment is only the beginning. We urge everyone to learn about this history, donate your time and money to Indigenous-led organizations, stand in solidarity with land protectors, advocate for missing and murdered Indigenous women, and return land to its original stewards.
