On Aug. 3, the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe was honored to welcome representatives from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Northwest Portland Area Indian Health Board to our homelands. Through meaningful government-to-government dialogue, we shared how Muckleshoot continues to invest in the health, well-being, infrastructure, and future of our Tribal community while strengthening partnerships that support Tribal sovereignty and growth. We are grateful for the opportunity to work together in service to our people. Thank you, Assistant Secretary, Gustav Chiarello, for your time, leadership, and commitment to strengthening Tribal-federal partnerships.
On May 5, the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe observed the National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Relatives (MMIWR), also known as Red Dress Day.
This Mother Earth Day, the Muckleshoot community came together in a powerful way, not just to celebrate the land, but to care for it with intention and hands‑on stewardship.
More than 300 Muckleshoot Tribal members and families gathered at T-Mobile Park on Saturday, May 9, for the Muckleshoot Family Mariners’ Field Day, spending the day together surrounded by laughter, sunshine and community.
