My_Career_Goals

My Career Goals My career goal is to further develop the national center that was created for American Indians and to increase the capacity and dimensions of the Center to include a department on aging and the issues that our elders face. The creation of a national disabilit center for Indian Country has been a long time goal of not only myself but of colleagues who work every day to improve conditions in Indian Country for our people with disabilities and elders. The national Center has been a dream or vision for many advocates in Indian Country and we want to obtain permanent funding that will maintain the Center beyond grant capacities. I would then like to get into policy and work in this field to help to develop and monitor policies that are created and presently in place that effect our people with disabilities and elders. Policies are often times developed by a few with a narrow view of a subject matter and I would like to be one of those people at the table raising concerns, issues and bringing ideas and solutions that would be more inclusive for our people in Indian Country.
