Mission
In 1983, after more than 100 years of broken United States treaty promises, the dxʷdəwʔabš established Duwamish Tribal Services as a non-profit 501[C]3 organization to provide social and cultural services to the Duwamish Tribal community.

About
The Duwamish people have been in the Seattle/Greater King County area since time immemorial. Our stories, such as “North Wind, South Wind”, tell of the last Ice Age, and an Ice Weir breaking over the Duwamish River.
We were the first signatories on the Treaty of Point Elliott in 1855, signed by Chief Si’ahl, who was chief of the Duwamish and Suquamish tribes.
Our longhouse today stands across the street from where one of our largest villages was located before it was burned down by settlers in 1895.
