  • Karen 1/25/08: "Thank you so much for the program about the Council of the 13 Indigenous Grandmothers. I loved it! It is such an important topic. I would love more programs like this and what we can each do to become involved."
  • Renee 1/23/08: "I was riveted with your interview last night with Carol Schaefer and the other women talking about the grandmother's counsel. I was driving home after spending an evening with my grade school friends and got chills (not from the frigid temps!) when Agnes told how her grandmother gifted her with the 13 talismans for her future."
