Constance (Tori) Campbell

Assistant Secretary/Treasurer Constance (Tori) Campbell is serving her first term on the Prairie Island Indian Community Tribal Council. Campbell believes it’s essential for Tribal Members to be involved in their government. She spent the past eight years working as a liaison in the Tribe’s education department, helping native students succeed in the classroom. She ran for Tribal Council because she wanted to take on an expanded role that could help accomplish her goal of continuing to support the growth of the Dakota language and culture within her community.

Education is a passion for Campbell, especially around Dakota culture and language. She completed an immersive Dakota Language internship with the Tribe’s language department and often travels to present to various organizations and groups on Indian Education. Campbell chaired the Red Wing School District’s Native American Parent Committee for more than six years and served on committees for ethics and diversification. Her volunteer work expands beyond the Tribal Community to include the Red Wing Royal Ambassador Committee and Red Cottage Montessori. Campbell also sits on the board of directors for the Minnesota Indian Education Association.

Campbell holds an associate degree from the Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts – Minneapolis and a bachelor’s in business from the University of Phoenix. Campbell was born in Red Wing and lives on Prairie Island. She is a foodie who enjoys traveling, watching her three children dance, attending pow wows, crafting, celebrating Halloween, and cheering on Minnesota sports teams.
