Did you know that there is a Lipan Apache face on the 2010 Census??? Tribal member Uvalle RedKnife was chosen to be one of the Native American faces of the Census and the Tribe is very proud that he is representing the Lipan People in this way.

How does the 2010 Census affect you??? This is an important opportunity for the Lipan People to proclaim their identity. When you fill out your Census form, which should be mailed to you in March, write down that you are Lipan Apache when it asks for your ethnicity. This is your chance to officially say who you are! Your count will help with our quest for Federal recognition. "Click" on "Learn More" to find out what to do...
