![["The document discusses the success of the Five Civilized Tribes Foundation's Area Arts and Crafts Program in providing training and jobs for Native American craftsmen in Oklahoma. The program has established multiple training centers and has seen an increase in sales and profits for the craftsmen. Financial support from the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the Oklahoma Vocational and Technical Education Branch has been crucial for the program's success, but funding may be limited in the future. The program has provided jobs for 239 Native Americans, with plans for expansion and new training centers in the coming year."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Departmental,%201945-1976%20(CAC_CC_001_4_0000_0000)/CAC_CC_001_4_111_33_0000-Interior%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs%20-%20Arts%20and%20Crafts%20Board,%201967/thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_111_33_0001_thumbnail.jpg "Legislation and Funding for Indian Health Services")
