The Denver American Indian Commission website
http://www.denvergov.org/NativeAmerican
offers information about the Commission’s purpose and directs
citizens to useful online links to Internet sites that focus on
American Indian contemporary news media. The website
includes information about the American Indian Commissioners,
the Commission’s 2008 Goals and Issues, Bylaws and meeting
minutes.
The website was developed by the Agency for Human
Rights and Community Relations (HR/CR), the umbrella agency to
the American Indian, African-American, Asian Pacific-American,
Aging, Gay/Lesbian/Bisexual & Transgender, Latino, People with
Disabilities and the Women’s Commissions. HR/CR is also
home to the following; Office of Aging, Office of Disability
Rights, Anti-Discrimination and Community Support.
Commission Chair, Lawrence Left Hand Bull, states
"I believe this website is absolutely critical in
bringing our people into the digital age and will assist us in
connecting with the younger generation who is much more
digitally savvy and will link to our broader community. The
website is a tool to bridge the divide that has historically
separated us, and will make us one people, one vision, that is
the City and County of Denver.”
Members and their tribal affiliations are:
Amber Belindo (Kiowa Tribe of Oklahoma), Carol Berry
(Chickasaw), Phyllis Bigpond (Yuchi ‘Euchee’ Tribe of Oklahoma),
Debbie Emhoolah Sankey (Kiowa and Arapaho), Lisa Harjo

County of Denver, to advocate for social and cultural awareness
