Positions open at NIEA

About NIEA

The National Indian Education Association (NIEA) was founded in 1969, in Minneapolis, MN, by Native educators who were anxious to find solutions to improve the education systems for Native students. NIEA adheres to the organization’s founding principles:

1) to bring Native educators together to explore ways to improve schools and the schooling of Native students.
2) to promote the maintenance and continued development of Native languages and cultures.
3) to develop and implement strategies for influencing local, state, and federal policy and policymakers.

At NIEA, work is driven by seven core values:

1.     Honesty, Integrity, Transparency;
2.     Purposeful, Intentional, Mindful;
3.     Reliable, Dependable, Commitment, Hard Work, Dedication;
4.     Respect;
5.     Compassion, Empathy;
6.     Community, Unity, Family, Service to Others; and
7.     Generosity

These values have been established and aligned with the NIEA Strategic Plan. The values represent the environment staff and partners consider a part of their lives and encompass the work done to meet the mission and vision.
