             Subpart E--Tribal Service Areas and Populations
 
Sec. 646.505  My tribe (or consortium) must qualify for an INA WtW grant under the ``substantial services'' criteria. How will our service area be determined?

    Tribes qualifying for the INA WtW program under the ``substantial 
services'' criteria (i.e., not operating their own TANF or NEW programs) 
may use the service area(s) established for the tribe under the JTPA or 
BIA Employment Assistance programs. INA WtW grantees funded under the 
``substantial services'' criteria shall ensure that all AFDC/TANF 
recipients within the service area for which the grantee was designated 
are afforded an equitable opportunity for INA WtW services, because 
their funding is predicated on 1990 Census data for all Native Americans 
residing in their service area, regardless of tribal affiliation. While 
there is no individual entitlement to INA WtW services, all eligible 
AFDC/TANF recipients shall be afforded equal consideration in the 
decision to provide INA WtW services. Service areas differing from those 
outlined above may be negotiated with the Department of Labor.
