Taíno heritage groups are organizations, primarily located in the United States and the Caribbean, that promote Taíno revivalism. Many of these groups are from non-sovereign U.S. territories outside the contiguous United States, especially Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. Groups outside the 48 contiguous states and Alaska are currently ineligible for federal recognition. Some of these groups are represented on the International Indian Treaty Council under the United Confederation of Taíno People, which has campaigned nationally and at the United Nations for the United States to recognize such groups.
