From setting tribal priorities, to building infrastructure, to managing and sustaining projects, the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) presents an unprecedented opportunity for the 574 federally recognized tribal nations to use their rights of sovereignty and self-government to strengthen their communities. As the tribes take on the challenges presented by the Act, the Ash Center’s Harvard Project on American Indian Economic Development is hosting a series designed to assist tribes, to help tribes learn from each other and from a wide array of guest experts.

During this discussion, the second in the series, each panelist presentation will be followed by a brief Q+A session to maximize the opportunities for audience participation.

This session, titled "Strategic Planning and Implementation – How to Pick the Winners and Help Your Tribe" will feature:

• Patricia Riggs (Tigua), Indigenous Consultant
• Joan Timeche (Hopi), Executive Director, Native Nations Institute University of Arizona
• Amy Besaw Medford (Brothertown Indian) Moderator, HGSE 2002, Ed.M., Research Affiliate, Harvard Project
