Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians

Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians The Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians is a sovereign Native American nation. Once there, they were imprisoned for 17 years.

The Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua, and Siuslaw Indians trace their ancestry back to the aboriginal inhabitants of the South-Central coast of Oregon. In 1856, due to white settlement pressures, the Tribes were rounded up and forcefully marched to a military fort, and then they were marched 60 miles up the coast to a reservation on the Yachats River. Fifty percent of the Tribal members died during this period due to the deplorable conditions. On October 17, 1984, as a result of a long moral, legal and legislative battle, President Ronald Reagan restored the Tribes to federal recognition by signing Public Law 98-481. The Tribes’ sovereignty was once again recognized and funding was restored for education, housing and health programs. In 1987, the Tribes approved a constitution and began to lay the groundwork for a self-sufficiency plan. Today, the Tribes employ mor than 50 staff who are administering various programs and developing economic opportunities.
