SUMMARY:Advisory Council on Historic Preservation | Preserve the Past\, Build for the Future Webinar Series
DESCRIPTION:Preserve the Past\, Build for the Future is a webinar series designed to introduce college students to historic preservation and related fields. \nRegister NOW for the 2024 series. Click the links of each webinar title to go to the registration page for that session. \nTuesday\, January 23\, 2024 – 2 p.m. ET: So\, You Want to Be a Preservationist? The umbrella of positions that fall under the field of historic preservation is wide and broad. This webinar will demonstrate the many different career paths within the field that speak to various interests. \nWednesday\, February 21\, 2024 — 2 p.m. ET: Living History: The Past\, Present\, and Future of Historic Black Towns and Settlements. Historic Black towns and settlements are communities started by formerly enslaved people after the Civil War. They allowed Black communities the opportunities to purchase land\, start businesses\, attend schools\, serve in elected positions\, and foster a sense of community after hundreds of years of enslavement. Many of these historic towns and settlements were violently destroyed by white supremacists during the Jim Crow era. Some scholars argue that up to 1\,200 Black towns and settlements were established between the 19th and 20th centuries. Approximately 30 communities continue to exist today. Historic preservation practitioners and other professionals are working to document the histories of these communities and preserve their legacies for generations to come. \nTuesday\, March 26\, 2024 — 2 p.m. ET: History in Danger: Community-Led Responses to Preserving AAPI Heritage Sites. Many of the historic sites and spaces that are significant to Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders are underrepresented when it comes to official recognition. Less than 3 percent of the official sites listed in the National Register of Historic Places are associated with AAPI history. Preservation practitioners around the country are advocating for the preservation of sites that represent the culture and history of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. At a time when many historic Chinatowns are at-risk of erasure from encroaching development and gentrification\, professionals and community members are working together to preserve their heritage for future generations. \nWednesday\, April 24\, 2024 — 2 p.m. ET: Traditional Trades Careers in Historic Preservation. The traditional trades field is a great career option for students looking for hands-on engagement within historic preservation. The traditional trades is a diverse field that includes managing\, documenting\, restoring\, and adapting historic structures. From the private sector to government agencies\, employers are looking for those with specialized skills to preserve our built heritage.   \nTuesday\, May 21\, 2024 — 2 p.m. ET: Disappearing Indigenous Heritage: Climate Change and Community Displacement. Climate change is actively threatening communities around the United States. Sea level rise\, coastal erosion\, and increased wildfires are displacing entire communities and the cultural landscapes they leave behind. Many of the areas at-risk of displacement are made up of marginalized communities\, further compounding systemic inequality. Preservationists and cultural resource specialists are responding to this displacement and loss of cultural heritage by partnering with communities to discuss ways to preserve their heritage while providing alternatives for their communities’ futures.

SUMMARY:Administration for Community Living Tribal Consultation
DESCRIPTION:This consultation will be held in-person and virtually on:\nWednesday\, January 24\, 2024\, from 1 pm – 5 pm ET\nCapital Hilton\n1001 16th Street NW\nWashington\, DC\, 20036 \nPlease contact TEYA Support Services\, LLC\, to register for the Tribal Consultation at:\nlaura.stevenson@teyacompany.com or melissa.szasz@teyacompany.com. They respectfully request that each Tribal government register one primary leader or designee to provide comments. All others are welcome to register as listen-only participants. \nACL will send out an agenda and list of registered speakers before the consultation. \nWRITTEN COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: If you wish to send written comments\, please submit them by February 23\, 2024 to: olderindians@acl.hhs.gov. \nACL looks forward to your feedback. If you have any questions\, please feel free to contact Edwin Walker at 202-795-7463\, edwin.walker@acl.hhs.gov\, or Cynthia LaCounte at 406-780-0349\, cynthia.lacounte@acl.hhs.gov. \nBackground\nThe United States has a unique trust & treaty relationship with Tribal Nations. In recognition of this unique legal relationship\, and to strengthen the government-to-government relationship\, Executive Order 13175 of November 6\, 2000 (Consultation & Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments)\, charges all executive departments and agencies with engaging in regular\, meaningful\, and robust consultation with Tribal officials in the development of Federal policies that have Tribal implications and sets forth fundamental principles and policymaking criteria. \nOn November 30\, 2022\, President Biden signed the Presidential Memorandum on Uniform Standards for Tribal Consultation which establishes uniform minimum standards to be implemented across all agencies regarding how Tribal consultations are to be conducted. Further\, on January 26\, 2021\, he issued Presidential Memorandum on Tribal Consultation and Strengthening Nation-to-Nation Relationships. These Presidential Memoranda are designed to improve and streamline the consultation process for both Tribes and Federal participants\, and ensure more consistency in how agencies initiate\, provide notice for\, conduct\, record\, and report on Tribal consultations. \nACL was created around the fundamental principle that older adults and people of all ages with disabilities should be able to live where they choose\, with the people they choose\, and with the ability to participate fully in their communities. On November 27\, 2023\, ACL announced our draft Tribal Consultation Policy and distributed it to Tribal Nations in attendance at the HHS Secretary’s Tribal Advisory Council (STAC) meeting. ACL plans to hold a Tribal Consultation on the draft policy to receive Tribal leader feedback and recommendations of what to incorporate in the final policy. \nSpecifically\, they hope to receive your feedback on these topics:\n1. Processes involving evaluating\, noticing\, & conducting a Tribal consultation;\n2. Processes involving Tribal official requests to initiate consultation\, consultation records\, and training;\n3. Processes involving listening sessions & Tribal engagement;\n4. Preferences on whether ACL should continue to hold consultations virtually to increase tribal access or limit to in-person attendance; and\n5. Any other questions\, comments\, or suggestions regarding the ACL Tribal Consultation Policy. \n

SUMMARY:HUD Webinar on Developing Programmatic Agreements Under Section 106
DESCRIPTION:February 1 at 2:00 pm Eastern\nRegister \nMore information \nThe Department of Housing and Urban Development will host a webinar on Section 106 compliance under the National Historic Preservation Act\, which is required for all Environmental Assessments and for environmental reviews that are categorically excluded and subject to related laws (CEST). For Tribal projects involving the rehabilitation of single-family homes\, the consultation for historic preservation is often the lengthiest part of the environmental review. Programmatic agreements can be used to shorten the compliance process. This webinar will provide Tribal Nations and THDEs with the information needed to develop a programmatic agreement with the Tribal Historic Preservation Officer and/or State Historic Preservation Officer. The webinar begins at 2:00 p.m. EST on Thursday\, February 1\, 2024.

SUMMARY:IHS Consultation on Proposed $250 Million Opioid Response Supplemental Funding Request
DESCRIPTION:The Indian Health Service (IHS) has announced it is initiating consultation on President Biden’s domestic supplemental funding request\, which would provide $250 million to the IHS to address the ongoing opioid and fentanyl crises. The funding request has not been taken up by Congress yet\, but the IHS is holding consultation in order to efficiently allocate the funds if they are enacted. USET SPF stated our support for these supplemental funds in our testimony for the record for the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs’ (SCIA) hearing on fentanyl in Tribal communities. \nIHS will hold the consultation on February 1\, 2024 from 4:30 – 6:30 pm EST.
