关于我们
Today, the Ponca Tribe is in the process of restoration as is so aptly expressed by its mission statement: We, the Ponca Tribe of Nebraska, in order to restore all rights previously held by our people and their descendants, promote peace, prosperity, happiness, and the general welfare of the citizens of our Tribe and our posterity: to exercise home rule, to conserve and perpetuate all worthy traditions and cultural elements of our people long established by customs; to improve our social order; to protect our rights as individuals; to promote business enterprise, both cooperative and individual; to promote educational opportunities for all Northern Ponca people; to consolidate our land holdings; and to provide for the inheritance of both real and personal property. Currently, the main concerns of the Ponca Tribe are twofold: 1) To provide for the needs of its people, namely, through the programs offered by the Tribe 2) To preserve what remains of its culture. Although lacking any land base, the Tribe does have designated “service area" counties: twelve in Nebraska, one in South Dakota, and two in Iowa. The Tribe also has office sites located in Niobrara, Norfolk, Lincoln, and Omaha, in Nebraska, and Carter Lake and Sioux City office in Iowa.

The restoration of the Ponca Tribe was not just a political victory; it represented the reclamation of identity, culture, and sovereignty. For decades, the tribe faced significant challenges, including loss of land, forced removal, and attempts to erase our heritage. Yet, through all adversity, the spirit of the Ponca people remained unbroken. Today, we reflect on the progress made since our restoration. We have rebuilt our governance, established programs to support our community, and revitalized our cultural practices. Our youth are now empowered to learn and embrace our traditions, ensuring that the Ponca way of life continues for generations to come. As we celebrate this anniversary, we also acknowledge the hard work of countless individuals who fought for our rights and the future of our people. Their dedication serves as an inspiration for us all to remain engaged and active in our community. Looking forward, we are committed to enhancing our economic development, expanding educational opportunities, and advocating for the rights of Indigenous peoples everywhere. Together, we will continue to forge a path that honors our past while building a vibrant future. In closing, let us remember the words of our ancestors: "We are still here." Today, we stand proud as the Ponca Tribe of Nebraska, ready to embrace all that lies ahead. Here's to our past, our present, and the bright future we are creating together! #RestorationDay #thirtyfouryears #BuildingANation (Artwork by Tribal Member Troy Spencer)
