Division of Indian Work

In 2022, the Division of Indian Work (DIW) will celebrate70 Years of Service to the urban American Indian community in Minneapolis.

For Give to the Max Day 2022, DIW will used funding received for general operating support.  This support will allow us to keep going those programs that may need additional revenue as we finish out 2022 and look forward to continuing to serve our community into 2023.  

MORE ABOUT DIW:  In 2018, we became our very own 501(c)(3) and with that a truly American Indian-led organization.  Both our staff and our Board of Directors reflect the American Indian community that we are honored to serve. 

DIW continues to provide services that help the urban American Indian community.  All services are provided free-of-charge to over 3,000 unduplicated people annually.

OUR MISSION:  To support and strengthen urban American Indian people through culturally-based education, traditional healing approaches, and leadership development.   To this end, we focus on community and delivering programs and services directly or in partnership with other organizations.

OUR PROGRAMS:  Work to nurture and guide youth; provide services for Elders; foster healthy families; end family violence; offer supportive housing to long-term foster care boys; and address hunger issues, all with a focus on culture.
