ACF Office of Public Affairs (OPA): Fact Sheet - Administration for Native Americans (ANA)

Do we really need an agency dedicated specifically to a single race?

Foster the development of stable, diversified local economies and economic activities which will provide jobs, promote community and economic well-being, encourage community partnerships and reduce dependency on public funds and social services

Isn't the development of local economies a local matter?

Support local access to, control of, and coordination of services and programs that safeguard the health and well-being of Native children and families

Why specifically Indians? Why can't they go through the same channels as everyone else?

Increase the number of projects involving youth and intergenerational activities in Native American communities

Why need the Fed be involved in this?


I don't understand why we have or need this agency
