American Rescue Plan Consultation: Native Families
November 5, 2021 –
The National Indian Health Board (NIHB) is hosting the first event in the COVID-19 Ask Me Anything (AMA) Series. American Indians and Alaska Natives (AI/ANs) across the country are getting a COVID vaccine for various reasons -- going back to school, playing sports, and protecting their family and communities. Native youth and parents, young people, and Tribal community members are invited to join the AMA to ask any questions they might have about COVID-19 vaccines or booster shots to an expert from the Centers for Disease Control and Protection (CDC). This AMA is focused on knowledge sharing and helping Tribal communities dispel any myths about COVID-19 vaccines and booster shots. Submit questions ahead of time with this form so presenter(s) have time to review them. Please come prepared to ask questions or share your own insights and experiences. The presenter will be Dr. Kimberley Fox, the director of the Division of Bacterial Diseases (DBD) within CDC’s National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases (NCIRD). For any question, please contact Darby Galligher at dgalligher@nihb.org
This AMA will be free and streamed live on Zoom and NIHB Facebook.
