Advocacy
HSD supports community self-determination through advocacy and policy work at all levels of government.
Protect Community Voice! Protect Section 106!
For sixty years, Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act has given Tribal Nations, communities, local governments, and the public a voice before federal decisions damage or destroy the places that carry our history.
Today, that protection faces unprecedented regulatory, legislative, and executive threats.
