About Muckleshoot Indian Tribe.

The Muckleshoot Indian Tribe is a federally recognized Indian tribe whose membership is composed of descendants of the Duwamish and Upper Puyallup people who inhabited Central Puget Sound for thousands of years before non-Indian settlement. The Tribe’s name is derived from the native name for the prairie on which the Muckleshoot Reservation was established. Following the Reservation’s establishment in 1857, the Tribe and its members came to be known as Muckleshoot, rather than by the historic tribal names of their Duwamish and Upper Puyallup ancestors. Today, the United States recognizes the Muckleshoot Tribe as a tribal successor to the Duwamish and Upper Puyallup bands from which the Tribe’s membership descends.

The mission of the Community Development Department is to ensure that development on the Muckleshoot Reservation occurs in a manner which is safe, efficient, attractive, and enhances the overall quality of life for our community members. The Behavioral Health Services provide comprehensive mental health, state certified chemical dependency treatment, adult recovery housing and prevention services to Tribal community members, families and other Native Americans living on and near the Muckleshoot Indian Reservation.
