Why does the formula use Native American youth populations based on 2005 data?
The agencies involved have determined that the most accurate data on tribal youth populations come from the survey of tribes conducted by BIA for their American Indian Population and Labor Force Report. The survey was being conducted by BIA every other year; however, it was not administered in 2007. As of the Spring of 2010 a new survey has been fielded. JRSA hopes to incorporate new tribal youth population estimates from this new survey in the pass-through calculations for the FY 2011 Title II Formula Grants Program.
