"While some tribes have simply written their members a check from their casino profits, the Tule River Reservation has been wisely reinvesting its profits and much of that reinvestment involves the youth of the reservation.

As detailed in a two-part series by The Recorder, the tribe has spent a lot of money improving educational opportunities for its youth.
