S2 | E3: Housing & Economic Development

While the environmental impacts of climate change are often front and center, the social and economic impacts can be just as important. In this episode of The Leadership Exchange Podcast, you’ll hear from WTGHA Tribal Elder, Carole Vandal; Historic Preservation Officer, Bettina Washington; and Tribal member, Barbara Gentry, as they discuss the WTGHA's mission to bring members home. Throughout the episode you’ll learn that for the Wampanoag Tribe of Gay Head (Aquinnah), separating climate change from critical community conversations around housing and economic development is impossible.
