The Vision of the Chamorro Land Trust Commission

 

The homelands of the Chamorro people, first taken by others over 150 years prior, have been returned to the Chamorro people as a place to live, sustain themselves and build productive lives.

 

The Chamorro Land Trust Commission, through comprehensive land use planning, robust financial management, and strong partnerships to enhance the abilities of the Chamorro people, has benefitted not just the Chamorro people and the island's environment, but all who love and call Guam home.
