Tejon Indian Tribe

Tejon Indian Tribe The Tejon Indian Tribe of California is a federally recognized tribe of Kitanemuk indigenous people of California.

Tejon will exercise its sovereignty and jurisdiction through meaningful self-governance honoring the needs and traditions of our people and ensuring the provision of exemplary service to our members. Tejon will dedicate itself to the highest standards of educational opportunity for its members so that they have the resources to personally succeed and represent the nation proudly and ably. Tejon will pursue health and medical support for all Tribal members to overcome the health issues so prevalent among us and all of Indian country and contribute to longer, happier and healthier lives. Tejon will ensure that families are secure on their lands and in their homes by reestablishing its land base and affording space and opportunity for all Tejon members to return and reside in safe, affordable, and appropriate housing.
