The Accohannock Indian Tribe, Inc. is a state-recognized tribe in Maryland and a nonprofit organization of individuals who identify as descendants of the Accohannock people.

The Accohannock Indian Tribe is not federally recognized as a Native American tribe.[4] The Maryland-based organization should not be confused with the American Indigenous Accawmacke Indians, an unrecognized nonprofit organization based in Cape Charles, Virginia.[5]

The historic Accohannock people were an Eastern Algonquian–speaking tribe who lived on the Eastern Shore of Virginia.[6]
