Abstract

Social policy programs aimed at solving the problems of Native Americans have always been a low priority for the United States Government. Most implemented projects have been incomplete. This article gives a detailed analysis of the legal provisions and system solutions that United States Government has utilized, led by interests independent of the reality and problems in Native American communities. United States social policy is primarily focused on education and health-care issues, but that has been less true for Native American communities - especially in the context of health care, which has long been the responsibility of the United States Congress pursuant to its treaty obligations.
