Tribal Consultation
Federally Recognized Tribes are sovereign nations, with the inherent authority to govern themselves and engage in government-to-government relationships with federal and state governments.
Through Governor Brown’s, Executive Order B-10-11, and Governor Newsom’s Executive Order N-15-19, the State of California has acknowledged the state’s obligation to ensure its policies and programs consider the needs of tribal communities.
HCD values the input and wisdom received from tribal governments for the development of legislation, regulations, rules and policies on matters that may affect tribal communities. HCD's tribal consultation guidelines can be found here. To request tribal consultation with HCD, you may contact: CIAP@hcd.ca.gov or TribalHHAP@hcd.ca.gov.
