Tribes and Bands of STATE

When a Indian tribes or groups is federally recognized it is eligible for funding and services from the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). When a state establishes state tribal recognition, it acknowledges the tribes status within the state, but does not guarantee funding from either the state or the federal government. When a tribe is recognized by the federal government, it can also be recognized by the state, but not all state recognized tribes are necessarily recognized by the federal government. For an current list of Federal and State Recognized Tribes, see NCLS List of Federal and State Recognized Tribes
