Honoring the history and people of the land our offices occupy is a beginning toward building equitable relationships and reconciliation. PAE respects the history and sovereignty of the Tribal Nations whose people were subject to unfathomable atrocities, forcibly dispossessed of their homelands, and more. We acknowledge these tribes are still here passing on their cultural heritage and want to share our deepest appreciation and respect to the original caretakers of this land. We aspire to continue the responsibility to be stewards of this one Earth taking care of the environment all around us.
