Indigenous communities and organizations have different citizenship, membership, residence and service rules. MyEligible does not determine Indigenous identity, citizenship or community eligibility.
This directory is a starting point, not a complete list of every Indigenous government or service.
MyEligible does not operate these services, assess whether they are right for you, or send them your information. Availability and eligibility are determined by each organization.
MyEligible does not share your information with listed organizations. Listings are external starting points and do not imply endorsement or a formal referral relationship.
Listing an organization does not imply that it endorses MyEligible.

Listings are drawn from official government pages and established Indigenous-led or Indigenous-serving organizations. Each entry includes a primary official link, organization type, and last-verified date. MyEligible does not ask about Indigenous identity in the quiz.
Organization type reflects what each body says it does on its official site — not every representative or advocacy organization provides direct individual services. Inclusion is not endorsement; omission is not a judgment about legitimacy.
Program details, hours, and eligibility change. Confirm directly with each organization before sharing personal information. MyEligible does not determine Indigenous citizenship, status, or community membership.
