Along with being the longest running FRTEP (Federally Recognized Tribes Extension Programs) office in the state of Washington, we are also the only Self-Directing, MOU funded, Tribal Extension unit located on an Indian Reservation in Washington with oversight/management of the only Tribal 4-H Program in the state. We have been in partnership with the Colville Confederated Tribes (CCT) since 1991.
