The Choctaw-Apache Tribe of Ebarb is a state-recognized tribe and nonprofit organization in Louisiana.[2] The members of the tribe are descendants of Choctaw and Lipan Apache people[3][4] and are required to prove lineal descent as part of their state-approved membership process.[5] The tribe is based in the towns of Zwolle, Louisiana and Ebarb, Louisiana (powwow grounds), both of which are in Sabine Parish, Louisiana, where the group have lived since the early 18th century.[6][7][3]
