Native Voices Advisory Group

Our advisory group is a collection of individuals representing the Grand Canyon’s affiliated tribes, the river outfitter industry, and program partners.

The purpose of the group is to make recommendations, to provide key information, and to provide advice and assistance as needed to the program director.

The Advisory Group meets on an as needed basis with a minimum face-to-face gathering of twice per year.

Individuals on the Advisory Group may also serve as consultants for the program or assist in identifying consultants for the program.
