San Fernando Band of Mission Indians

The San Fernando Band of Mission Indians are of a very rich heritage. For almost 200 years despite early efforts to eradicate our people and erode our traditional culture, our existence continues. Many generations later we continue to maintain our unique identity and to maintain a sense of community. We have maintained our pride as Native American people and struggle daily to maintain and protect our culture. We are strong in our resolve to keep those things that give meaning and vitality to our identity as a people, including our language, our culture, our lands and our rights
