 In an effort to preserve tribal history, 10 tribal historic preservation offices in Minnesota have been awarded over $285,000. The US Deputy Secretary of Interior, David Bernhardt, along with the National Park Service announced the distribution earlier today. Some of the tribal historic preservation offices in Minnesota include the Red Lake Band of Chippewa, the Leech Lake Band of Chippewa, the Malax Band of Ojibwe, and the White Earth Band of Minnesota Chippewa. The funding is part of $58 million. The National Park Service has invested in the preservation efforts in every state.
