The United States Department of State sponsors and funds the organization through the Education and Cultural Affairs Under-Secretary at the Office of International Visitors (OIV) whose mission is to strengthen U.S. engagement with countries around the world and cultivate lasting relationships by connecting current and emerging foreign leaders with their American counterparts through short-term visits to the United States. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, 263 international visitors from 89 countries were hosted by The Albuquerque Council for International Visitors dba Global Ties ABQ under the International Visitor Leadership Program (IVLP). We also hosted two groups of 6 delegates each under the Congressional Office of International Leadership Program.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
