Indian Employment Assistance — CFDA 15.108

Employment-assistance obligations at $463.5M

USAspending.gov records $463,520,800.69 in obligations under CFDA 15.108. Those 70 awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $6.62 million per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical award and not a unit cost for job placements, trainees certified, or unemployment rates on reservations. Other Bureau of Indian Affairs employment or tribal listings under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $463,520,800.69.

The assistance-listing title is INDIAN EMPLOYMENT ASSISTANCE. CFDA 15.108 is the identifier. Read the $463.5M headline — $463,520,800.69 in the award file — as the obligation book tagged 15.108 only. USAspending.gov assistance awards are the source. This page does not convert obligations into outlays or into a count of job placements, trainees certified, or unemployment rates on reservations.

70 awards on 39 recipients

39 recipients share 70 awards. That is about 1.8 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $463,520,800.69 evenly would assign about $11.89 million per recipient. That density is a packet quotient, not a typical grant size and not a cost per unit of job placements, trainees certified, or unemployment rates on reservations. The packet does not list the 39 named organizations. Read $463,520,800.69 only against CFDA 15.108.

Seventeen jurisdictions describe where employment-assistance awards are coded, not a labor-force census of Indian Country. Dollars follow funded tribal and BIA partners. Place-of-performance amounts, if shown, live on the program table. Recipient count is organizational, not a census of job placements, trainees certified, or unemployment rates on reservations. A simple average is about $6.62 million per award. Combining 15.108 with other Bureau of Indian Affairs employment or tribal listings under different CFDA numbers would invent a combined total this packet does not contain.

Award rows are not a placement census

Among assistance listings, 15.108 is a short cooperative file: 70 awards against 39 named recipients in 17 jurisdictions. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of projects” and a worse proxy for job placements, trainees certified, or unemployment rates on reservations. The recipient field (39 recipients) tells you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (70) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report job placements, trainees certified, or unemployment rates on reservations. Citing 70 as that unit would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions. The $463,520,800.69 stock is the obligation figure from USAspending.gov. Seventy awards in 17 jurisdictions is a concentrated tribal-employment file.

Obligations versus employment-assistance outlays

The $463,520,800.69 is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Indian Employment Assistance awards — are not in the packet. A file can show a large obligation stock while draws, reimbursements, or closeouts follow a different schedule. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. Treasury outlays are a separate series.

Use CFDA 15.108 to size this listing in the assistance file. Do not use it as a dashboard of job placements, trainees certified, or unemployment rates on reservations. Those series live elsewhere. This page reports the obligation book tagged 15.108. The $463.5M figure is the compact form of $463,520,800.69.

What the 15.108 tables omit

Geographic coding covers 17 jurisdictions. Seventeen jurisdictions describe where employment-assistance awards are coded, not a labor-force census of Indian Country. Dollars follow funded tribal and BIA partners. It is not a jobs dashboard, not a Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act total, and not a count of every tribal workforce program. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $463,520,800.69.

Place-of-performance on 17 jurisdictions is a coding field. Read the program page before treating those cells as equal shares of Indian Employment Assistance funding. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid.
