Land Acknowledgement
Open Arms Perinatal Services acknowledges that we inhabit the traditional ancestral lands of the Puget Sound and Salish Sea tribes. Present-day Seattle is located on the traditional land of the Suquamish, Muckleshoot, Puyallup, and Duwamish people, and we continue to do our best to honor the original peoples of this land and the land itself. We must also acknowledge that much of the United States as we know it today has been made possible by the labor of enslaved Africans and their descendants. We recognize our debt to exploited workers, past and present, whose labor was and continues to be stolen through unjust practices.
