In December 2009, the New Mexico Department of Workforce Solutions (NMDWS) formally adopted its State-Tribal Consultation, Collaboration, and Communication Policy, reaffirming the agency’s commitment to building strong, respectful, and cooperative relationships with New Mexico’s Tribes, Nations, and Pueblos.
This policy reflects NMDWS’ dedication to:
- Honoring government-to-government relations with tribal governments.
- Recognizing and respecting tribal sovereignty.
- Ensuring meaningful consultation and collaboration in workforce development efforts.
- Promoting effective communication to address the unique needs of tribal communities.
By endorsing this policy, NMDWS pledged to work in good faith with tribal partners to design and implement workforce initiatives that benefit all Nations, Pueblos, and Tribes across the state.
