Department of Indian Work

06/19/2026

I believe in transparency, and where I come from….
a closed mouth won’t get fed.

The Department of Indian Work (DIW) is looking for a new home. Our lease ends September 30, 2026, and we’re searching for approximately 5,000 square feet in Saint Paul or the surrounding area.

DIW provides a culturally specific food shelf, emergency services, youth programming, family support, and community-based services to Native families throughout the Twin Cities.

We’re not asking for money.

We’re asking people to keep their eyes and ears open. If you know of a building, church, school, office space, warehouse, or landlord who may have space available, please let me know.

Sometimes the right opportunity comes from the most unexpected place.

Please share.

Pidamaya ye ❤️
