STTC member survey
The Southern Tutchone Tribal Council has seen many changes throughout the years. Three years ago, the Board of Directors adopted a vision of pride and solidarity among Southern Tutchone peoples. We have been working toward this by bringing Southern Tutchone people together using events based on culture, language, and heritage.
Now, we are looking forward to the next three years and would like to hear about your vision for the future of the Southern Tutchone Tribal Council.
This survey is for Southern Tutchone people who were not able to participate in the engagement sessions already held in Whitehorse, Haines Junction, and Burwash Landing.
The survey closes on February 15th, 2019 and takes between 5-10 minutes to complete.
The survey can be found here: https://fs29.formsite.com/ms91Ml/sbqurrigoj/index.html
