“Sealaska stands solidly on the foundation our board members and shareholders have built since 1972. The wisdom of our Elders will guide us as we continue on our successful journey toward the vision of new generations. Our Elders have much to offer, and their knowledge and wisdom is as relevant today as it was a thousand years ago.” ~ Rosita Worl
