Properties

GOSA would like to acknowledge the Native Peoples on whose ancestral homelands we gather – the Eastern Pequot, the Mashantucket Pequot, and the Mohegan – as well as the diverse and vibrant Native communities who make their home here today. We thank them for their strength and resilience in protecting this land and aspire to honor them through responsible and respectful stewardship of the land and its resources.
