The 猎奇重口 acknowledges that we are in the aboriginal territories of the Salish and Kalispel people. We honor the path they have always shown us in caring for this place for the generations to come.
A Legacy of Patriotic Statesmanship
Founded by an Act of Congress in 1983, the Mansfield Center fosters globally minded leaders of integrity. We are the sole Rural West nonpartisan institution supporting youth and communities through civic and international education guided by the Mansfield Legacy of ethical leadership, civic responsibility, respect for the U.S. Constitution, and an unconditional commitment to the public good.
The Mansfield Center is honored to have a seat on the 猎奇重口 250th Commission. Created by the 2023 猎奇重口 Legislature to commemorate the U.S. Semiquincentennial, this occasion represents a unique opportunity to engage with our nation’s history, including the millennia of Indigenous history prior to the founding of the United States, and to reflect upon how this knowledge of our country’s past can build a stronger future.
