The Georgetown Tribal Council (GTC) is the governing body for the federally recognized tribe of the Native Village of Georgetown, Alaska. With a current tribal membership of about 150, GTC works towards ensuring the best quality of life for all Native people of the region, both now and for future generations. Through the ownership of ancestral lands and pursuing economic opportunities, GTC aims to repopulate Georgetown and maintain a strong connection to their land. Georgetown, located on the Kuskokwim River in the Kilbuck-Kuskokwim Mountains, has a rich history that dates back to the discovery of gold in 1909. As mining declined, members were forced to leave the area due to lack of employment opportunities. However, with the passage of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) in 1971, former Georgetown residents and their descendants had the opportunity to plan for resettlement and reclaim their ancestral lands. Today, GTC, along with the Kuskokwim Corporation and the Calista Corporation, works towards the sustainability of the tribe's cultural identity and the well-being of its community.Generated from the website
