The Muckleshoot Indian Tribe believes in supporting the community – and it puts its resources behind those convictions.
Did you know the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe secured $45 million to build 50 new units of affordable housing this year? Did you know it provided free childcare for more than 400 children last year? Did you know it raised more than 10 million salmon fry for release? How about 37 new caregivers and two registered nurses for our Elders In-Home Support Services?
All that and more information is available in this year's Annual Report available online on the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe website Member Services Portal and in print around at the Muckleshoot Elders Complex and the Philip Starr building.
Tribal Council is actively engaged on the recent actions from D.C. and will continue asserting our treaty rights and trust obligations with our federal partners to ensure that Muckleshoot’s voice is heard.
1.5 million Chum Salmon fry took a twisting, turning waterslide out of rearing tanks at Muckleshoot's Keta Creek hatchery and splashed out to freedom in Crisp Creek and the Green River.
“The cleanup of the Duwamish River is an important step to removing sediment contamination and restoring the river for our culture and future generations.” - Muckleshoot Tribal Chairman Jaison Elkins
