- Summary
- "This book encourages involvement in your community and to be the change that you want to see in the world. It introduces the concept of citizenship from a personal perspective and how first Nation reserves are funded and how their infrastructure is organized. The story line outlines the importance of volunteering and the many people it takes to host a successful powwow and other community events. It also takes readers through the sometimes confusing world of the Band Office, including voting regulations and how elections are organized on reserve in accordance with the Indian Act. The author also writes about campaigning for office."--Publisher.
