Honoring the Land and Its Original Custodians: A Commitment to the Nuwuvi (Southern Paiute)

Located in North Las Vegas, Nevada, TAB Professional Services proudly recognizes the traditional lands of the Nuwuvi, or Southern Paiute people, who have long stewarded this region. Our acknowledgement of the Nuwuvi's historic and ongoing connection to these lands reflects our commitment to respect and learn from the indigenous custodians whose cultural heritage enriches our community.

Our Responsibility to Indigenous Communities

Moving Forward with Intention

We are committed to integrating this awareness into our business operations, ensuring that our activities respect and promote the cultural values and traditions of the Southern Paiute and all Indigenous peoples.

Beyond the Acknowledgment: Steps Toward Real Change

While recognizing the land is important, it is merely the first step in a long-overdue process to appreciate and actively support the land we occupy and its inhabitants. True support for Indigenous communities involves moving beyond acknowledgment to engagement and action. Here's what we can all consider doing to deepen our impact:

  • Engage with Local Indigenous Groups: Learn about the active Native groups or organizations in your community. Understand their work and see how you can support their efforts.
  • Build Authentic Relationships: Reach out to local Native community members to learn how best to practice acknowledgment in a way that fosters dialogue and potential collaboration.
  • Inclusion at Events and Governance: Reflect on whether Native individuals are present at your events, on your teams, or on your boards. If they are not, explore what steps you could take to start building those relationships.
  • Amplify Native Voices: Ensure that your programming—whether at cultural, educational, or corporate events—prioritizes Native stories, voices, and perspectives.
  • Support Indigenous Advocacy: Follow and support Indigenous leadership on environmental and cultural preservation efforts. A powerful resource to consider is the advocacy work by Indigenous Women Rising

At TAB Professional Services, we are committed to transforming our acknowledgment into ongoing action. We encourage our clients, community, and partners to join us in supporting meaningful initiatives that foster a genuine commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
