The Kalispel Tribe owns and operates more than a dozen businesses and enterprises in and around the Pend Oreille area.

We believe in building a strong community and our economic development opportunities emphasize our commitment to the land and people.

People’s Place

In keeping with its name, the People’s Place serves as a valuable resource for the entire community. Individuals may receive counseling, attend free classes and group meetings, and research topics in the library; all in a beautifully designed, home-like building located in a serene setting.  A sampling of classes includes cooking class, beading, gardening, and parenting skills.
