United Indians of All Tribes Foundation (UIATF) is a 501c3 non-profit organization founded in Seattle, Washington in 1970. The mission of United Indians is to foster and sustain a strong sense of identity, tradition, and well-being among the Indian people in the Puget Sound area by promoting their cultural, economic, and social welfare. This is accomplished through the development and operation of educational, social, economic, and cultural programs and activities benefiting local Native Americans, and by maintaining a strong link with Indian tribes and other urban Indian organizations throughout the State of Washington.
The purposes of United Indians are as follows:
1 To acquire support for, design, create, operate, and perpetuate an Indian Cultural-Educational Center as a place where Native Americans can preserve and advance their diverse cultures, and educate people about historical and contemporary Native Americans.
2 To support the sovereignty of Native American Tribes and preserve their cultural and economic independence.
3 To improve the social, educational, economic, and cultural well-being of Native Americans.
This is accomplished through developing and operating world-class educational, cultural, economic, and social programs and activities, advocating for Native Americans in local, state and federal governmental fronts, and establishing and maintaining a strong network of allies.
