Iona University acknowledges that indigenous peoples and nations, including the Munsee Lenape people within the greater Lenapehoking territory, have stewarded through generations the lands and waterways of what is now Westchester County, where Iona University is located. We honor and respect the enduring relationship that exists between these peoples and nations and this land. In the tradition of the Christian Brothers, Iona University uses education as a force for overcoming injustice and marginalization by promoting honor, dignity, and respect for all people.
