SUMMARY:USDA APHIS Listening Session on the Chronic Wasting Disease Herd Certification Program Standards
DESCRIPTION:September 18 at 1:00 pm Eastern\nRegister \nWeb Join URL\nZoom Join URL:\nMeeting ID: 161 989 8808\nMeeting Password: xFkhgX2db\nDial-in information: +1 669- 25-4 5252 US | +1 646- 82-8 7666 US \nThe U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) seeks your and your staff’s input on revising the Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) Herd Certification Program (HCP). \nThe HCP is a cooperative effort between the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS)\, State animal health and wildlife agencies\, and farmed cervid owners. APHIS coordinates with these State agencies to encourage cervid owners to certify their herds and comply with the CWD Herd Certification Program Standards. The goal of the HCP is to provide a consistent\, national approach to control the incidence of CWD in farmed cervids and prevent the interstate spread of CWD. Achieving this goal will ultimately result in several important long‐term outcomes\, including: \n\nHealthy cervids (both farmed and wild populations) with a reduced risk of CWD.\nIncreased confidence that HCP‐certified herds are at low risk for CWD infection.\nStrong trade of cervid animals and products (increased market confidence).\nReduced risk of transmission from\, and environmental contamination by\, CWD‐positive herds.\n\nYou may provide written comments or questions during the session using the meeting chat function\, registration form\, or file written comments before\, during\, or after the meetings by emailing CWD@usda.gov or mailing to Dr. Hillary A. McManama\, Veterinary Medical Officer\, Cervid Health Staff\, Strategy and Policy\, Veterinary Services\, APHIS; c/o Ms. Melanie Rouse\, 4700 River Road Unit 43\, Riverdale\, MD 20737. Written comments by attendees or other interested stakeholders will be welcomed for the public record up to the close of business on Monday\, November 13\, 2023. Please refer to Docket No. APHIS-2023-0042 when submitting your comments.

SUMMARY:Shinnecock Indian Powwow
DESCRIPTION:The Shinnecock Indian Powwow is one of the largest Native American Gatherings on the East Coast. As we dance upon the earth we are reminded that our culture and love for one another is the resounding heartbeat that transcends all that we face; wherever we face it. We dance upon our drum. The sound of the drum and our footsteps are recorded year after year within the drum that we dance upon. We may be the only Nation that dances upon its drum. \n​The trees that surround our circle also record our Powwow historical moments within their barks as they grow with the People. We dance with all of our relations\, past and present\, from nearby and from afar. We welcome home our distant families as well as our guests with open arms and prayers as we share ourselves\, our culture\, arts & crafts\, good food and our ceremonies during each Labor Day weekend.  \n​We begin at 3pm on Friday with our first Grand Entry of dancers from all over the Americas at 7pm. Each day we host competitive dancing\, guest entertainment\, prayers\, ceremonial dances\, the acknowledgement of sponsors and visiting dignitaries. We honor our veterans for protecting this life as we know it. Grand Entry re-occurs each preceding day at 12:30pm and 7pm with the exception of Monday. We conclude Monday evening at 6pm with the awarding of prizes to our competing drums and dancers.  \nWe also host 100 Native American arts\, crafts and food vendors from all over the Americas. Cultural enrichment and the opportunity for cultural education abounds as Native American representatives from every region are available to demonstrate and share their stories to all who ask.  \nThis celebration of tradition has been fostered by our community leaders and the Shinnecock Church to whom we are forever grateful. Each year as we fill ourselves with the excitement of the upcoming Powwow celebration\, we are reminded of the other things we are thankful for. We thank our patrons for joining us each year. May your way continue to be beautiful.  \nTabutne

SUMMARY:Tribal Consultation on  Tribally Controlled Postsecondary Career and Technical Institutions Program (TCPCTIP)\, Ready to Learn (RTL)\, and Education Innovation and Research (EIR) Programs
DESCRIPTION:September 5 at 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm Eastern\nRegister\nPlease follow the registration link above to participate in the consultation. To maintain online security\, each attendee must register individually\, and registration cannot be transferred to or used by others. Once you have completed registration\, an individualized access link for the session will be sent to you with additional information. \n\nOn September 5\, 2023\, the U.S. Department of Education (ED) will conduct a Tribal Consultation on the Tribally Controlled Postsecondary Career and Technical Institutions Program (TCPCTIP)\, Ready to Learn Programming (RTL or Ready to Learn\, formerly Ready to Learn Television)\, and Education Innovation and Research (EIR). The purpose of this consultation will be to receive meaningful input from American Indian\, Alaska Native\, and Native Hawaiian communities to ensure that Tribal leader views inform these programs administered by ED. This consultation will advance the Department’s commitment to uphold the federal trust responsibility described in Executive Order 13175. \n\nTribally Controlled Postsecondary Career and Technical Institutions Program \nThe Department is considering waiving the requirements of 34 CFR 75.250 and 34 CFR 75.261(c)\, which limit project periods to 60 months and restrict project period extensions that involve the obligation of additional Federal funds. This action would extend the project period for the two current TCPCTIP grantees awarded grants under Perkins V in 2019 for FY 2024 and FY 2025\, effectively resulting in a two-year extension. This action would depend on Congress continuing to authorize and appropriate funds under the existing program authority and would require the grantees to continue meeting the TCPCTIP requirements. Moreover\, the Department would not announce a new competition or make new awards in FY 2024 or FY 2025\, or in future years\, if Congress continues to authorize and appropriate funds under the existing program authority. Based on FY 2023 appropriations\, the Department expects to use an estimated $11\,953\,000 for FY 2024 grant extensions and $11\,953\,000 for FY 2025 grant extensions. We will consider continuation award requests under the current TCPCTIP statutory authority\, subject to the requirements of 34 CFR 75.253\, including the requirement that each grantee demonstrates that it is making substantial progress performing its TCPCTIP grant activities based on the requirements in the 2019 notice inviting applications.  \n The Department is considering this action to relieve the two TCPTIP grantees of the costs and time burden associated with submitting applications for a new competition in FY 2024. Please note that the Department took a similar action under Perkins IV; the Federal Register notice that announced the waivers under Perkins IV can be viewed here. TCPCTIP grantees first funded in 2007 received one-year grant extensions each year past the original project period until the Department conducted a new competition and made new awards under Perkins V in 2019. \n\nReady to Learn Programming \nThe Ready to Learn Programming (RTL) grant supports the development of educational ‘‘transmedia\,’’ and grantees seek to create new\, interrelated combinations of television and interactive media (games\, apps\, etc.) in which characters\, narrative storylines\, and problem-solving are used to support kindergarten readiness and early education for children ages 2-8. The RTL grant encourages partnerships that help promote the wider use of its educational media products in various settings\, such as homes\, daycare\, libraries\, museums\, afterschool programs\, and many other places where children learn. Tribal Consultation is critical to understand what subject matter content the focus of the next round of RTL (e.g.\, STEM\, literacy\, social-emotional learning\, computational thinking) should be\, and what strategies would be recommended for the dissemination and distribution of RTL-produced media and resources in reaching and serving Native communities and their young children. \n\nEducation Innovation and Research \nThe Education Innovation and Research (EIR) program supports efforts to use and build evidence on field-initiated innovation education to improve student achievement and attainment for high-needs students. Consultation is critical to understand what types of innovations are needed to serve Native communities\, what emerging evidence exists on strategies to support students from Native communities\, how EIR grantees might engage Native communities as potential implementation sites\, what schools serving Native communities want to learn from EIR grantees\, and how education leaders in Native communities might become involved as peer reviewers. \n\nWritten Comment Period \nWritten public comments for a topic will only be collected through the TribalConsultation@ed.gov email address. The comment period is now open\, and all comments must be received by 11:59 p.m. ET on 10/05/2023. The Department of Education remains steadfast in its commitment to honor the nation-to-nation relationship and advance Tribal sovereignty and self-determination. \nA Tribal government may designate information provided during the consultation as “sensitive” and request non-disclosure of the information to the public. Certain federal laws\, including the Freedom of Information Act\, may require disclosure of information designated sensitive by a Tribal government. Questions about this notice can be sent to TribalConsultation@ed.gov. This consultation is a closed press event. \n\n

SUMMARY:POSTPONED: USET Hepatitis C/HIV/Substance Use Disorder Clinical Training
DESCRIPTION:POSTPONED: USET staff have been monitoring Hurricane Lee and for the safety and protection of staff and Tribal citizens\, we have decided to officially postpone our USET Hepatitis C/HIV/Substance Use Disorder Clinical Training to early 2024.
