About the Abáachi Mizaa Speakers Who Have Helped with Projects
This section recognizes the Abáachi Mizaa speakers who have contributed, or continue to contribute, to our past and present language projects. Language is not separate from the individuals who speak it. Without the knowledge, dedication, and participation of these speakers, our language program would not be able to carry out its work. We are deeply grateful for their contributions and commitment to the preservation and revitalization of Abáachi Mizaa.
