BIA's mission is to enhance the quality of life, to promote economic opportunity, and to carry out the responsibility to protect and improve the trust assets of American Indians, Indian Tribes and Alaska Natives. Join us as we collaborate with Tribal nations to revitalize Tribal languages, cultures, economies, and lands to make life better for Indigenous people. BIA is committed to ensuring a safe and engaging workplace, which exhibits the values of respect, teamwork, fairness, and honesty.
Indian Affairs (IA) provides services to 574 federally recognized tribes with a population of about 2.5 million American Indians and Alaska Natives. While the role of IA has changed significantly in the last three decades in response to a greater emphasis on Indian self-governance and self-determination, Tribes still look to IA for a broad spectrum of programs such as social services, law enforcement and detention services, administration of Tribal courts, natural resources management, economic development, implementation of land and water claim settlements, housing improvement, disaster relief, and the replacement and maintenance of schools, roads, and bridges.
The Department of the Interior places a high value on diversity of experience and cultural perspectives and encourages applications from all interested eligible candidates. Diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility are fundamental principles that guide the Department and allow us to successfully achieve our mission.
