White Earth Indian Reservation Tribal Council

The White Earth Indian Reservation Tribal Council is the governing body of the White Earth Band of Ojibwe, located in northwestern Minnesota. Established in the late 19th century, the council plays a crucial role in managing the affairs of the tribe, which includes overseeing economic development, cultural preservation, and social services for its members. The White Earth Reservation was established through treaties with the U.S. government, and the council has worked to uphold the rights and sovereignty of the Ojibwe people since its formation. The council's mission includes promoting the welfare of the tribe, preserving its cultural heritage, and ensuring the sustainable use of natural resources within the reservation.
