Description:

Chief Tanyan of the Seminole Nation discusses the progress being made by the tribe, including funding for various projects and programs for employment and training. He expresses concern about a small group of individuals attempting to stifle progress by placing undue burdens on the administrative staff. Tanyan emphasizes the importance of unity among the Seminole people to ensure the success of these programs. Financial assistance is available for training and related costs, and additional information can be obtained from the Employment Assistance Office. The Seminole Campfire publication provides guidelines for employment assistance and highlights the Adult Vocational Training program authorized by Public Law 959. Tanyan urges the Seminole people to support these programs and avoid division in order to strengthen the tribe.
