The Band

The Delawares of Idaho were incorporated in 1979; It was formed to promote the interests and well-being of Delaware Indians, wherever they may reside; to encourage the development of an historical and tribal tradition for persons descended from Delaware Indian ancestors; to inculcate in the members of the Corporation a sense of pride and privilege in being Delaware Indians and descendants of Delaware Indians; to make every effort to obtain for the members of the Corporation all perquisites, prerogatives and rights to which American Indians of the United States of America are generally entitled; to gain for the members of the Corporation the rights of compensation and ownership interest to which they are entitled in ancestral lands of the Delaware Indians, wherever located; to gain recognition as a federally recognized tribe or band of Indians; to all things necessary to promote the welfare and best interests of members of the Corporation as Delaware Indians. We are descendants of Delaware Indians who were members of the tribe in 1854, and we have proved it in court.
