The Makah Language Program conducts research, documentation analysis, curriculum development, and teaching of the Makah Language to the Neah Bay Elementary and High School. An Elementary Makah Language Dictionary is forth coming.

The goals of the Makah Language Program (MLP) are as follows:

1. To preserve the Makah Language
2. To restore the Makah Language to spoken fluency
3. To educate our children and people as scholars, able to compete anywhere in today's world and yet maintain their Tribal heritage
