"The Tribe of First Contact"
Northern Arawak Tribal Nation Projects:
We are a dynamic family with an ancient heritage. As Taino people we strive to live up to the name Taino which means Good or Noble People. We instill this in our children and walk it out in our daily lives. As a result we have one of the most active Yucayekes in the Taino diaspora. We believe in giving back to our communities and to one another through service projects and to our fellow Taino brothers and sister we reach out to you so that you may awaken the Taino in you which has been kept silent for so long. Guakia Taino Yahabo -Our Taino People Are Still Here!
