The Department of the Interior's Bureau of Indian Affairs has made $881,160 available to 60 Indian tribes in various states for improving their governments. The Tribal Government Development Program will fund projects such as training tribal council members, developing ordinances and constitutions, and improving budgetary processes. The goal is to strengthen tribal governments and promote self-determination among Indian tribes. Tribes were selected based on need, economic level, and number of enrolled members. The funds will be used to accomplish goals set by the tribes themselves and may also serve as seed money for additional funding sources.
