Status: The meetings are being hosted by
CDC/ATSDR and are open to the public.
Attendees must pre-register before July 11,
2014, at the following Web link: https://
www.cdc.gov/tribal/meetings.html.
Purpose: During 2011–2013, CDC revised
its existing Tribal Consultation Policy (issued
in 2005) with the primary purpose of
providing guidance across the agency to work
effectively with American Indian/Alaska
Native (AI/AN) tribes, communities, and
organizations to enhance AI/AN access to
CDC resources and programs. Within the
CDC Consultation Policy, it is stated that
CDC will conduct government-to-government
consultation with elected tribal officials or
their authorized representatives before taking
actions and/or making decisions that affect
them. Consultation is 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-togovernment consultation activities rests
within the CDC Office of the Director, leaders
in other CDC Centers, Institute, and Offices
shall actively participate in TAC meetings
and HHS-sponsored regional and national
tribal consultation sessions as frequently as
possible.
Matters for Discussion: The TAC and CDC
leaders will discuss the following public
health issue topics identified by tribal
leaders: Traditional foods, environmental
health, and other disease-specific topics;
however, discussion is not limited to these
topics. The TAC Meeting will also include
site visits to area tribes.
During the 11th Biannual Tribal
Consultation Session, tribes and CDC leaders
will engage in consultation on Native
specimens and the National Tribal
Environmental Health Think Tank, and tribes
will have an opportunity to present formal
testimony on tribal health issues.
Tribal leaders are encouraged to submit
written testimony by 11:59 p.m., EDT, on
July 16, 2014, to April R. Taylor, Public
Health Analyst, Tribal Support Unit, or
CAPT Craig Wilkins, Acting Director for the
Tribal Support Unit, CDC/OSTLTS, by mail
to 4770 Buford Highway NE., MS E–70,
Atlanta, Georgia 30341, or by email to
tribalsupport@cdc.gov.
Depending on the time available, it may be
necessary to limit the presentation time of
each presenter.
The agenda is subject to change as
priorities dictate.
