Listening to Tribes and understanding Tribal priorities drives our programs and services we offer.

Service Request

The EEOP staff looks forward to serving your school and students.  In order to make best use our limited resources we offer the following guidelines:

  • Please plan in advance. Usually we need several weeks or even months advance notice.
  • To facilitate communications, we appreciate being able to use email, however we may also suggest a conference call to work out the details.
  • The EEOP staff should NOT be left in the classroom to supervise students without a teacher present from the school. We want to work with both students and teachers.
  • In general, our services are available at no cost to schools that serve Native American students, however for some projects we may ask for a cost share from the school.
  • With occasional exceptions, we prefer that you NOT combine classes for our presentations and projects. We generally prefer working with smaller groups.
  • If significant travel is required to get to your school, we need to schedule several presentations to justify the travel time and expenses.
  • Information about your school and classes will help us prepare for your group. The purpose of the Service Request form is to help us deliver better services for your students.
