Paskenta Band of Nomlaki Indians

Corning, CA

Paskenta Band of Nomlaki Indians is a federally-recognized sovereign nation located in Northern California with a deep tradition of resiliency, culture, and a strong vision for the future of all peoples living in the Corning-Paskenta Tribal Community.

Members of the Paskenta Band of Nomlaki Indians have lived in Northern California for generations, in what is now called Tehama and Glenn counties. Paskenta lands lie between Red Bluff, California, and Stoney Creek, California, west of the Sacramento River.

There were two major divisions of Nomlaki Indians in California: the Hill Nomlaki and the River Nomlaki. The Paskenta Band is Hill Nomlaki. The River Nomlaki occupied the territory east of the Hill Nomlaki in the Sacramento River Valley in present-day Tehama County.

Full tribal status enabled the Paskenta Band to embark on its mission to develop a strong, diverse economic base for its membership and surrounding communities. In 2000, the Tribe acquired a 2,000-acre reservation near Corning, California and soon began construction of Rolling Hills Casino, which opened in 2002, providing employment to several hundred local residents. 

The  Paskenta Band of Nomlaki Indians Government offers attractive compensation packages, including competitive salaries, medical, dental and vision coverage, a generous 401(k) program, and other benefits. We provide a drug-free workplace and require pre-employment drug testing and background check clearance. We are an equal opportunity employer. Our diversified operations include these enterprises:
