The Umatilla language is now accessible to anyone in the world with an internet connection.
In a press release, the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation announced that the Umatilla Language Dictionary is now online.
A collaboration between the CTUIR Language Program and Amazon Web Services, the Tribes’ intent was to educate tribal members on their language and raise awareness about the tongue.
The prevalence of the Umatilla language has diminished over the years as many of its fluent speakers have died. The CTUIR established a language program in 1996 to preserve the language by recording elders and teaching the language to tribal youths and adults.

Under IRS rules, nonprofits and other tax-exempt organizations that fail to file a Form 990 for three years in a row automatically lose their exempt status.
