Nebraska Commission on Indian Affairs

About This Opportunity

The Nebraska Commission on Indian Affairs (NCIA) is the official state liaison between Nebraska's tribal nations and state government. The Commission works to identify and eliminate barriers for Nebraska tribes and Native citizens in housing, employment, education, healthcare, economic development, and civil rights. NCIA serves off-reservation Native communities across Nebraska — including the significant urban Native population in the Omaha metro — and can provide referrals to tribal services, state programs, and advocacy resources. Contact the Commission at (402) 471-3475 for referrals and assistance.

Who Can Apply

Open to enrolled members of Nebraska tribal nations (Omaha, Ponca, Santee Sioux, Winnebago) and Native American citizens living in Nebraska, including urban and off-reservation residents.
