The Lytton Band of Pomo Indians, a federally recognized Pomo Indian Tribe originally from Healdsburg, has called Sonoma County home for generations. Since their tribal status was reinstated by the federal government in 1991, following a 30-year struggle, the Tribe has significantly improved the lives of their members through investment in the San Pablo Lytton Casino, among other business ventures. Lytton Rancheria has demonstrated an impressive commitment to the North Bay community through support of the Windsor Fire Protection District, the Boys & Girls Club of Central Sonoma County, the PDI Surgery Center in Windsor, the Charles M. Schulz Museum, and the Sonoma County Historical Society, to name a few. Lytton Rancheria has been a proud supporter of the Luther Burbank Memorial Foundation since 2009.
