Communications Department

Vision Statement

The vision of the Communications Department is to disseminate trustworthy, accurate, timely information to LTBB Tribal Citizens, LTBB Governmental Operations and Enterprises, the general public and the media.

Mission Statement

We will provide LTBB Tribal Citizens with a monthly newsletter, Odawa Trails, featuring trustworthy, accurate and timely information, specifically articles highlighting tribal events, tribal programs/departments, tribal enterprises, tribal citizens and tribal culture and tradition.

We will assist LTBB Governmental Operations and Enterprises in educating tribal citizens, the public and the media about the services LTBB offers, specifically by creating or assisting in the creation of press releases, flyers and advertisements.

We will assist LTBB Governmental Operations and Enterprises on community public relations projects and activities.

The department is funded from the indirect cost pool. Currently, this is a department of two.
