The Snoqualmie Tribe has launched the Ancestral Lands Movement, where through education and awareness individuals can integrate land acknowledgment and respect for the Snoqualmie Tribe into their recreational practices and experiences.

The Ancestral Lands Movement seeks to spread awareness of the Snoqualmie people who have lived in the southern Salish Sea region since time immemorial and share the significance of these lands and provide information on how people can help the Tribe in respecting, restoring, and protecting these lands.

The City of Sammamish has pledged to support the Snoqualmie Tribe Ancestral Lands Movement as a city partner. The Snoqualmie Tribe Ancestral Lands Proclamation was signed by Mayor Karen Moran on behalf of the Sammamish City Council at its July 6, 2021 meeting.
