The resolution com- memorates and honors Lane’s Native American heritage, culture and community and in- tends to welcome Lane’s “strong and active in- digenous community of students and employees” as well as show “respect to the land on which LCC is built.” The resolution was proposed by the col- lege’s Native American Student Association and student government.

Part of this commitment includes United Way prior- itizing funding for organi- zations specifically serving priority populations, in- cluding American Indian/ Alaska Native, Asian, Black, Latinx, Multiracial, and Hawaiian/Pacific Islander populations; rural areas of Lane County; under-repre- people; and ALICE families or families navigating pov- erty.
