About Us

The Walker River Paiute Tribal government is comprised of a (7) member Tribal Council: Chairman, Vice Chairman, Secretary, Treasurer and (3) Members. We believe that it is our people who are our strength that empower us to be physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually healthy. We strive to promote, preserve, and protect the quality of life for our Agai Dicutta Numu (Trout Eater People).

Our Mission

The mission of the Walker River Paiute Tribe is to support individual and community self-determination and self-sufficiency. To protect our tribal sovereignty and become self-sufficient; to provide opportunities to meet the needs of the Tribal Members while maintaining the awareness of our culture, values, tradition, education, language, history, infrastructure, health and welfare. To manage and protect our natural resources, which empower our community for current and future generations.
