A vital, strong and documented culture, language and history honors the past generations, ensures a healthy and balanced tribal community, utilizes the advice and knowledge of the elders, and educates the general public in a manner that serves tribal interests. The Tribal Government is working to steer the Aleut Community of St. The Tribal Government Office is located at 2050 Venia Minor Rd in St. We are committed to ending violence through empowerment, leadership, individual and systemic advocacy, education, and social change. The Tribal Court ensures the efficient and fair administration of justice while honoring the customs, history and traditions of our people. We believe all persons should be treated with equality, dignity and fairness, and have the right to safety and self-sufficiency.
