CDC Virtual Listening Session – Tribal Implementation Center Program

August 20 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm CDT

The CDC Office of Public Health Data, Surveillance, and Technology (OPHDST) is hosting a listening session on Wednesday, August 20, 2025, at 3:00 PM ET (2:00 PM CT, 1:00 PM MT, 12:00 PM PT, 11:00 AM AKST).

The purpose of this listening session is to receive tribal input on the design of the new Tribal Implementation Center and ensure its services effectively support tribal public health data modernization.

The intended audience for this listening session includes tribal leaders, tribal public health professionals, Urban Indian Health professionals, tribal healthcare providers, tribal-serving organizations, and others involved in tribal public health data efforts.

As part of this listening session, we are interested in learning about:

  • The specific community considerations we should integrate into the Tribal Implementation Center to ensure it respects tribal sovereignty and supports the public health initiatives in your tribal community.
  • What data modernization means in your role, and how it supports the public health initiatives in your tribal community.
  • The steps we should take to ensure the long-term sustainability of the capacity your tribe builds through the Tribal Implementation Center.

Tribal Implementation Center Background:

In early 2025, CDC’s Public Health Infrastructure Grant’s National Partners (Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO), the National Network of Public Health Institutes (NNPHI), and the Public Health Accreditation Board (PHAB)) onboarded Chickasaw Health Consulting as the Tribal Implementation Center. This partnership aims to support tribes and tribal-serving organizations in their public health data infrastructure and modernization projects. The first cohort of tribes selected to receive support will be onboarded to the program in Fall 2025.
