Native Lands

We acknowledge that Brophy is built upon the sacred land of the Piipaash (Maricopa) and Akimel O'odham (Pima) people. These tribes are still part of our community today and we are working with the Salt River and Gila River communities to learn more about the history of the land and how we can collaborate in its care.
