Purpose: CDC released their Tribal Consultation Policy in October of 2005 with the primary purpose of providing guidance across the agency to work effectively with AI/ AN tribes, communities, and organizations to enhance AI/AN access to CDC resources and programs. In November of 2006, an Agency Advisory Committee (CDC/Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry Tribal Consultation Advisory Committee—TCAC) was established to provide a complementary venue wherein tribal representatives and CDC staff have the opportunity to exchange information about public health issues in Indian Country, identifying urgent public health needs in AI/AN communities, and discuss collaborative approaches to these issues and needs. Within the CDC Consultation Policy, it is stated that CDC will conduct government-to-government consultation with elected tribal officials or VerDate Mar<15>2010 14:35 Jan 03, 2011 Jkt 223001 their designated representatives and also confer with AI/AN organizations and AI/AN urban and rural communities before taking actions and or making decisions that affect them. Consultation is designed to be an enhanced form of communication that emphasizes trust, respect, and shared responsibility. It is an open and free exchange of information and opinion among parties that leads to mutual understanding and comprehension. CDC believes that consultation is integral to a deliberative process that results in effective collaboration and informed decision making with the ultimate goal of reaching consensus on issues. Although formal responsibility for the agency’s overall government-to-government consultation activities rests within the OSTLTS, leadership of other CDC Centers, Institutes and Offices shall actively participate in TCAC meetings and HHSsponsored regional and national tribal consultation sessions as frequently as possible. Matters to be Discussed: The TCAC will convene their advisory committee meeting with discussions and presentations by various CDC senior leaders on activities and areas identified by TCAC members and other tribal leaders as priority public health issues. The Biannual Tribal Consultation Session will engage CDC Senior leadership from the Office of the Director and various CDC Centers, Institutes and Offices. Opportunities will be provided during the consultation session for tribal testimony. Tribal Leaders are encouraged to submit written testimony by close of business on January 15, 2011, to the contact person listed below. It may be necessary to limit the time of each presenter due to the availability of time. The agenda is subject to change as priorities dictate.
