"Walking Together.mp3"

"In 2005 Arlie Neskahi was asked to compose a song for the Native Wellness Institute. This song represents the work we do and is a gift for the People. Much thought and spirit went into the creation of this song and it is Arlie's wish as well as the Native Wellness Institute that you will use this song in a good way."
