Utah
Community meetings, gatherings, classes and celebrations, and the tribes and organizations behind them, all in one place so you can find your community.
Population is the 2020 Census count of people identifying as American Indian or Alaska Native alone or in combination, rounded down to the nearest thousand. Rank uses the same count. Tribe totals reflect headquarters and official state recognition; federal and state counts may overlap. The Navajo Nation, Ute Mountain Ute Tribe and San Juan Southern Paiute Tribe (headquartered in other states) also have land in Utah. Utah has no process for recognizing tribes.

Nations headquartered elsewhere with a presence in Utah
These nations are headquartered in other states and have land, places or community ties here, named on each card. Each nation has one listing: it claims it once, from its home state, and its updates and events held here show on this page too. Being listed here does not mean a nation is headquartered or officially recognized in Utah.
