About Stewarts Point Off-Reservation Trust Land, California
Stewarts Point Off-Reservation Trust Land is located in Sonoma County, California. The land was acquired by the United States government in 1853, and held in trust for the Stewarts Point Rancheria of Coast Miwok Indians. In 1986, Congress enacted the California Indian Land Claims Settlement Act, which provided for the conveyance of the land to the tribe.
The Stewarts Point Off-Reservation Trust Land is part of the ancestral homeland of the Coast Miwok people. The tribe has used the land for cultural and religious purposes for centuries. The tribe is currently working to develop the land into a sustainable community that will provide housing, economic development, and social services for its members.
