Habemco serves as the people’s company where our mission is to support the Tribe in its quest for self-reliance and self-determination.
This is done by replacing the traditional tax base destroyed by failed federal policies with revenues from Tribal enterprises and providing expertise to the Tribal government when requested.
The Tribe & Its Enterprises
“The people of rock village,” also known as the Habematolel Pomo of Upper Lake, is a federally recognized Native American sovereign nation located in Northern California. The Tribe has existed in the Upper Lake area of California since time immemorial. The Tribe narrowly survived centuries of federal policies that subjected it to unspeakable cruelties, including attempted genocide; one example is known as the Bloody Island Massacre. Nonetheless, the Tribe persevered and has embraced the modern federal policy of self-determination and self-sufficiency. These ideals not only form the backbone of the Tribe’s public policy with regard to its citizens, but they are woven throughout the fabric of the exercise of their Sovereignty.
