Puyallup Heritage Division

The Puyallup Tribe’s Heritage Division unites the Culture Department, Historic Preservation, and Language Programs to strengthen our Tribal Communities relationships to our traditions, our ceremonies, and our way of life.

The Puyallup Tribe is accountable and effective in communication and generous in meeting the needs of our members and involves membership in the planning process. Our community is unified in protecting sovereignty and preserving our history, culture, natural resources and environment. Our tribal membership is educated, healthy, safe, stable and self-sufficient. Our members love and respect one another and we honor our ancestors and elders with gratitude for their sacrifices. Our tribal economy is vibrant and our tribal businesses are thriving, providing adequate resources to support tribal membership needs for generations to come.
