JC GUARDIAN HOUSE NAMES
The origins of each elected JC Guardian House name comes from our connection to the elements of the environment no matter where we are in the world. The JC Guardians were chosen because our people in the pacific were very visual people, who used and acknowledged nature everyday pre-European.
