This information\, as well as information on other agency issues\, is available on the Forest Service\, Office of Tribal Relations’ National Consultation webpage at https://www.fs.usda.gov/working-with-us/tribal-relations/national-consultation. \n\n\n\nThe agency will also be hosting a tribal forum to share information regarding these changes.

SUMMARY:2026 USET Community Resilience Roundtables
DESCRIPTION:Join the USET’s Office of Environmental Resource Management (OERM) Tribal Community Resilience Program for a series of virtual roundtable discussions on Tribal Nations’ resilience strategies\, successes\, and challenges. Each roundtable will begin with a short presentation on an environmental or community project taking place in the USET region followed by questions and open discussion for attendees to learn from one another and build community across the region. The topic of each roundtable will be announced the week before each session via social media and email. We encourage attendees to join even the sessions that may not be obviously related to their interests or duties since all facets of environmental resilience interact and discussions are enriched by diverse participants. \n\n\n\nThese roundtables are intended exclusively for Tribal citizens and staff of Tribal Nations and Tribal organizations\, especially in the USET region\, and are not open to non-Tribal partners. To promote a comfortable and safer environment for discussion\, the roundtables will not be recorded. For the same reason\, AI/note-taking bots are not permitted and will be removed from each session. \n\n\n\nWhen: The fourth Thursday of each month at 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm Central/2:00 pm – 3:00 pm Eastern \n\n\n\nWho should attend: Tribal Nation staff\, leaders\, and citizens interested in environmental and community resilience regardless of typical work duties \n\n\n\nLearning objectives: Attendees will learn about new approaches to environmental and community resilience across Nations and sectors while building relationships and potential partnerships across the region. \n\n\n\nRegistration is open! \n\n\n\nQuestions? Please contact Steph Courtney\, USET Community Resilience Liaison\, at scourtney@usetinc.org with any questions or concerns.
