Today, the Kaw Nation is headquartered in Kaw City, Oklahoma. To learn more about the Kaw Nation's history, you can visit their website and hear it directly from them: https://www.kawnation.gov/kanza-history/

Though the tribe resides in Oklahoma currently, their stamp on Kansas can still be seen. Council Grove was the last place the Kanza lived in Kansas before being forcibly removed in 1873. In Council Grove, there are many historical sites to visit: 

• Kaw Mission State Historical Site: https://www.kshs.org/kaw_mission
• Allegawaho Memorial Heritage Park is a beautiful visit, and you can also walk the Kaw Nation Memorial Trail. To learn more about the park and the work the Kaw Nation is doing there, you can visit: https://sacredredrock.com/
