Summary

The Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians offers Community Impact Grants aimed at supporting non-tribal local governmental agencies. These funds are intended to reimburse for actual or potential impacts resulting from class III gaming activities, such as those incurred by police, sheriff, and fire departments. Established through federal recognition in 1976 and with a reservation recognized in 2014, the Tribe's commitment to community welfare is evident in this initiative.

Overview

About us The Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians comprises descendants of the Stoluck-wa-mish River Tribe. In 1855, our indigenous population resided on the main branch of the Stillaguamish River, as well as the north and south forks, near present day Arlington and Stanwood, Washington. The name Stoluck-wa-mish or Stillaguamish, has been used since 1850 to refer to our people who lived along the Stillaguamish River and camped along its tributaries. Our ancestors were a party to the Treaty of Point Elliott of 1855, under the spelling Stoluck-wa-mish. However, no separate reservation was established for the Stoluck-wa-mish River Tribe. Some moved to the Tulalip Reservation, but the majority remained in the aboriginal area along the Stillaguamish River. In 1974, the Tribe petitioned the secretary of the interior for acknowledgement and recognition as an Indian Tribe. On October 27, 1976, the Tribe achieved federal recognition and treaty rights, and were made eligible for federal services. The Tribe's 64 acres of land was recognized as a reservation in 2014. We have several tribal facilities and businesses located on the reservation, near the Stillaguamish River, in Snohomish County, Washington. Our Tribal headquarters are located in Arlington, Washington. Community Impact Grants Funds that can be distributed to non-tribal local Governmental agencies, for reimbursement for actual or potential impacts from class III gaming activities. (I.E.
