Nana I Ke Kumu
(Native Hawaiian meaning "Look to the Source")
With its inception in 1989, the Council formed goals to support and promote Native People's cultures and history. Originally called "The Council for American Indian Interpretation," the name was changed in 1997 to reflect the inclusion of Native Peoples from all lands around the globe.
Members include university and independent scholars, interpreters from Federal and state land managing agencies, museums, nature centers and non-profit groups, and representatives from several tribes of indigenous people. The Council is an affiliated Section within the National Association for Interpretation, and participates in national and regional workshops of NAI.

"Ojibwe say that turtle holds up Mother Earth. We all live on Turtle Island. In exchange for her diligence, Turtle is a symbol of duty and healing, and a conveyor of sensitive feelings."
