Historical Note
Established in 1953 by the Arizona Legislature, the Arizona Commission of Indian
Affairs had as its original mission to study the condition of American Indian
residing in the state. Comprised of 15 members, the Commission includes 7 Indian and
2 non-Indians appointed by the Governor, and 6 others approved according to their
office within the state government. The Executive Director for the Commission is
also appointed by the Governor. Starting in 1986, the Commission changed mission and
became the State’s liaison with Indian tribes.
Scope and Content Note
About half of the documents are bound by year and include correspondence to tribal
council members and state politicians like Senator Barry Goldwater. The records
include administrative documents like memos, budgets and minutes from their annual
meetings and documentation on appropriation hearings, a list of members appointed by
Governor Pyle, and newspaper clippings.
