The South Puget Intertribal Planning Agency (SPIPA)
was formed in 1976 as a 501(c)(3), tribally chartered intergovernmental agency. From the beginning, SPIPA responded to the needs and directives of the member tribes.

SPIPA provides direct services, planning, and technical assistance to each tribe and eligible Native Americans residing within the SPIPA service area.

Today the consortium includes five western Washington Tribes: the Chehalis, Nisqually, Shoalwater Bay, Skokomish, and Squaxin Island Tribes. Our Agency continues the vision and spirit of our early founders and tribal leaders.

SPIPA is primarily funded through federal and state grants. Other funds come from private grants and donations. In 2007 SPIPA took initial steps to diversify funding sources through resource development.
