On June 23, CRIT Manataba Messenger posted a Tribal Enrollment Address reminder, pressing members to verify mailing details so enrollment notices do not get lost, delayed or returned. The notice was aimed at tribal members who have moved, split time between residences or changed contact information.

The Colorado River Indian Tribes Enrollment Department maintains tribal-member records, enrolls new members and handles address updates, membership cards, vehicle exemptions, family and ancestral research, and Certificates of Indian Blood. Members should report changes in address, phone number or name to keep enrollment records current for the tribe’s 4,652 members.

The department is at 26600 Mohave Road in Parker, Arizona 85344. The enrollment office lists (928) 669-1240 as its main phone number and (928) 669-1236 as its fax line. A June 2024 enrollment notice said mail had been returned as undeliverable because there was no forwarding address, no such address, the address was closed or the residence was vacant. CRIT’s government is led by a nine-member Tribal Council, and the reservation includes the Mohave, Chemehuevi, Hopi and Navajo peoples. The reservation was established in 1865, the tribal constitution was adopted in 1975, and an updated tribal profile puts about 8,385 people on the nearly 300,000-acre reservation, which includes 90 miles of Colorado River shoreline.
