Mission

The Tulalip TERO has a mission to help improve the quality of life for Tulalip Tribal members and other Native American families through opportunities that can assist them in pursuing quality jobs or careers with decent wages and by protecting their rights of preferential employment, training, business and economic opportunities on and near the Tulalip reservation. Also, to assist business in achieving compliance with hiring Native American qualified workers.
