Resources

OTSG Informational Packet

To improve awareness of the resources and services provided by OTSG and its role in assisting Tribes through the process of self-governance, as well as to improve communication with the Tribes, the OTSG chose to refine, update and improve its communication materials in 2012. OTSG carried the same design theme, tone, color palette and images throughout its suite of materials (pocket folder brochure, stepped slipsheets, accordion-style QRG (Z-Card), handbook and website).

The Indian Health Service (IHS) Office of Tribal Self-Governance (OTSG) updated its Negotiations Handbook in 2012 to provide an understandable, well-organized and convenient reference guide for key decision makers and managers to use during the migration and administration of the Tribal self-governance model.
