The Treaty of Neah Bay secured to the Makah Indian Tribe the “right of taking fish and of whaling or sealing at usual and accustomed grounds and stations.” The Treaty of Olympia secured to the Quileute Indian Tribe and Quinault Indian Nation, the southern neighbors of Makah along the Washington coast, the “right of taking fish at all usual and accustomed grounds and stations.” Unlike the Treaty of Neah Bay, the Treaty of Olympia expressed only a “right of taking fish”; it did not reference “whaling or sealing.” In this case, the Ninth Circuit held the “right of taking fish” in the Treaty of Olympia includes a right of whaling and sealing. Then, the Ninth Circuit held Quileute and Quinault’s “usual and accustomed” fishing grounds under the treaty extend beyond the areas in which the Tribes customarily fished to areas in which they hunted “‘marine mammals—including whales and fur seals.’” App.

  • Tribal Resources
    Pathways to Healing Tribal Resources It is the mission of the Cowlitz Tribe Pathways to Healing Program “To honor traditional values and beliefs that promote safety and well being for Native American families by providing a holistic approach to inform, educate, and heal our communities affected by violence.” We value: Integrity: Through honesty and integrity we respect the rights and choices of individuals and families affected by violence. Community: We demonstrate our commitment to social change and an end to violence within our community, through our leadership, words and actions. Safety: We help provide a safe non-threatening environment free from abuse, violence and judgement. Empowerment: Through advocacy we empower individuals and communities to heal from abuse and speak out against all forms of violence. This project was supported by Grant NO. 2010 TW-AX-0003 awarded by the office on Violence Against Women, U.S. Department of Justice. The opinions, findings, conclusions, and recommendations expressed in this publication/program exhibition are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of Department of Justice Office on Violence against women. 1 Introduction Autsis-kwil-lum (Friend) In a time of colored ribbons and magnetic bumper stickers for every occasion, people can spread awareness for any cause they are passionate about. The Pathways to Healing (PTH) program would like people to remember that violence in our homes, schools, and communities should not be accepted and we all can have a voice. This Tribal directory is offered as a resource for Native American/Alaska Native people to locate services within Tribal communities that provides support or resources when healing from violence.
