25 Tribes Selected for Tribal Affairs Management Program

The text discusses the Tribal Affairs Management Program initiated by the Bureau of Indian Affairs in 1972. The program aims to assist 25 Indian tribes in developing managerial skills and coordinating economic development programs. The selected tribes will receive financial assistance for full-time tribal management and administrative services. A selection panel reviews applications and makes recommendations for participation in the program. The total program funding for fiscal year 1972 is $200,000, with each successful applicant entering into negotiations for a Buy-Indian contract. The program is of limited duration, with the expectation that tribes will eventually generate assistance from other sources.
