We have recovered land in our traditional and ancestral territory and initiated the process for federal recognition and trust. We have acquired a HQ at Fort Bayard, Bayard, NM, a military installation originally built to house US soldiers sent to massacre the Chiricahua Apache. We helped pass a bill to protect the Gila River in the Gila Forest, and have negotiated to extend usufructuary rights and joint management agreements to facilitate use and enjoyment and stewardship of natural resources.
