Dot Lake Village

This project will build capacity for Dot Lake Village’s forestry program by acquiring essential equipment and safety tools to support sustainable forest management, stewardship activities, and safe access to tribal lands for ongoing maintenance, thinning, and resource protection.

The purpose is to strengthen Dot Lake Village’s capacity to prevent and respond to wildfires through strategic planning, training, and partnership development, while advancing that protect Tribal lands, subsistence resources, and community health through sustainable forestry and emergency readiness.

Our project will implement sustainable forest management through selective harvesting, replanting, and biodiversity protection while exploring carbon and forest product markets. This strengthens the Dot Lake tribal economy, supports Native-led stewardship, and promotes long-term forest health.
