Our Mission

---

The purpose and mission of The Tribe of the Whitetop Band of Native Indians is to protect and enhance the quality of the lives of all our citizens, to protect the culture and traditions of Native Americans, to teach our young people the history of our families and the history of Native American peoples, to respect the burial sites of our ancestors that have gone before us and for the generations to come, and to confront ongoing environmental issues that have plagued our Nation as a whole and the health of Mother Earth. We will stress the importance of Her continued survival.

The Tribe will always elect our own leaders and teach our children the importance of education and self-reliance. Also, we pledge to care for our elderly and our youth. We commit to assisting and serving our communities and our country.
