On September 18, the Washington State Bar Association honored Travois Advisory Board member Gabe Galanda with its 2014 Excellence in Diversity Award. The association was honoring Gabe for his contribution to diversity in the state’s legal profession.
Travois is honored and lucky to have such an accomplished Indian Country leader on our board.
Our blog has featured Gabe’s work in the community before with a guest post from Gabe himself. He introduced and wrote about the accomplishments of Huy, a tribal community-based organization dedicated to helping incarcerated American Indians. Gabe is a founding member and chairman of the organization.
Congratulations on the award, Gabe! We look forward to continuing to work with you toward our shared goal of greater economic opportunity in Indian Country.
