Program details & compliance
Description
The Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (ISDEAA), Public Law 93-638, encourages Indian self-determination and tribal control over services. Through the Consolidated Tribal Government program, tribes can merge similar services for greater flexibility in planning and meeting community needs. This approach combines multiple programs or grants into a single agreement, streamlining contracting and reducing paperwork and administrative costs. As a result, tribes can provide more impactful services with Bureau funds, such as, Scholarships, Johnson O’Malley, Adult Education, and Job Placement and Training.
