Clarissa Howtopat

Clarissa, (Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs) , believes in compassion and listening to others.

“One thing I am passionate about is my people. I am 20 years old and I started college when I was 16. I got my associates when I was 19 and I am currently working as a counselor and recovery mentor. I also volunteer in the Oregon State prisons. I want to help my tribe and people with addiction and overall health.”

How should I, as a white person, respectfully talk about native ancestry?
