SUMMARY:USET Project ECHO HCV/HIV/SUD Clinical Training
DESCRIPTION:Project ECHO HCV/HIV/SUD Clinical Training\n\npresented by\nUSET Tribal Health Program Support\nDuring the pandemic\, Tribal Nations saw a rise in injectable drug use. This\, in turn\, caused a rise in the number of new Hepatitis C (HCV) and HIV infections. People who inject drugs (PWID) are at high risk for HIV and HCV infections if they use needles\, syringes\, or other drug injection equipment. Both of these infectious diseases are treatable and manageable with the right knowledge and tools at hand. \nLearning objectives: \n\nRecognize the importance of universal screening and universal treatment of HCV and HIV.\nExamine the epidemiology and prevalence of Hepatitis C\, HIV\, and Substance Use Disorder in relation to Indian Country – with an emphasis on the Nashville Area.\nDescribe the newest HCV and HIV antiviral treatments including indications and side effects.\nDescribe the newest Substance Use Disorder medicated assisted treatments including indications and side effects.\nLearn about the best practices in Indian Country for HCV\, HIV\, and Substance Use Disorder.\nEstablish a teleconferencing mentoring system for HCV\, HIV\, and Substance Use Disorder patients utilizing the ECHO model.\n\nDraft Agenda \nWhen? April 11 – April 13\, from 9:00 am – 4:00 pm Eastern each day \nWhere? This in-person training will take place at the Westin Portland Harborview\, 157 High Street\, Portland\, ME 04101. Reserve your room at the group rate through March 24. \nWho should attend? USET member Tribal Nation health directors\, clinic staff\, physicians\, nurses\, case managers\, and anyone supporting Tribal Nation citizens through the health sector are welcome to join. \nUSET will allot up to two stipends for staff members from each USET member Tribal Nation to attend the Clinical Training to offset the cost of travel; however\, attendance is not limited just to those who receive stipends.

SUMMARY:AIANTA Webinar: Seed Savers and Food Sovereignty
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, April 11\, 2023 10:00 a.m. (Mountain)\nRegister \nIn this American Indian Alaska Native Tourism Association (AIANTA) webinar\, you will hear about the value of seeds in our stories\, our lives\, and their contribution to food sovereignty. The speaker\, Andi Murphy (Diné) started the “Toasted Sister Podcast” show in 2017 and has since talked with dozens of Native chefs\, farmers\, and individuals in the food industry who are working towards Indigenous food sovereignty. Spend time with them to increase your understanding of the food culture today and how to integrate it into your agritourism offerings. Andi’s podcast The “Toasted Sister Podcast” is an award-winning show that documents the Native American Food Movement. Andi can teach you how using the stories of seed saving and the production of traditional foods can impact food sovereignty and create awareness for this critical part of Indian Country life. “Seeds are a vibrant and vital foundation for food sovereignty and are the basis for sustainable\, healthy agriculture. We understand that seeds are our precious collective inheritance and it is our responsibility to care for the seeds as part of our responsibility to feed and nourish ourselves and future generations.” – Native American Food Sovereignty Alliance.

SUMMARY:USET Project ECHO HCV/HIV/SUD Clinical Training
DESCRIPTION:Project ECHO HCV/HIV/SUD Clinical Training\n\npresented by\nUSET Tribal Health Program Support\nDuring the pandemic\, Tribal Nations saw a rise in injectable drug use. This\, in turn\, caused a rise in the number of new Hepatitis C (HCV) and HIV infections. People who inject drugs (PWID) are at high risk for HIV and HCV infections if they use needles\, syringes\, or other drug injection equipment. Both of these infectious diseases are treatable and manageable with the right knowledge and tools at hand. \nLearning objectives: \n\nRecognize the importance of universal screening and universal treatment of HCV and HIV.\nExamine the epidemiology and prevalence of Hepatitis C\, HIV\, and Substance Use Disorder in relation to Indian Country – with an emphasis on the Nashville Area.\nDescribe the newest HCV and HIV antiviral treatments including indications and side effects.\nDescribe the newest Substance Use Disorder medicated assisted treatments including indications and side effects.\nLearn about the best practices in Indian Country for HCV\, HIV\, and Substance Use Disorder.\nEstablish a teleconferencing mentoring system for HCV\, HIV\, and Substance Use Disorder patients utilizing the ECHO model.\n\nDraft Agenda \nWhen? April 11 – April 13\, from 9:00 am – 4:00 pm Eastern each day \nWhere? This in-person training will take place at the Westin Portland Harborview\, 157 High Street\, Portland\, ME 04101. Reserve your room at the group rate through March 24. \nWho should attend? USET member Tribal Nation health directors\, clinic staff\, physicians\, nurses\, case managers\, and anyone supporting Tribal Nation citizens through the health sector are welcome to join. \nUSET will allot up to two stipends for staff members from each USET member Tribal Nation to attend the Clinical Training to offset the cost of travel; however\, attendance is not limited just to those who receive stipends. Upon verification of full event attendance\, stipend payments will be mailed. \nRegister for the training \nContinuing education credit will be offered for various health professions. More information will be available soon! \nQuestions? Contact Bryan Hendrix\, USET Quality Improvement Data Analyst. \n  \nCOVID Protocols (as of 9/15/2022\, subject to change)\nThe USET Tribal Epidemiology Center (USET TEC) is a recognized public health authority supported by the Tribal Nations within the USET region. Throughout the course of the COVID pandemic\, we have relied on their expertise to guide us to ensure for the overall safety\, health\, and wellness for our members\, staff\, and event attendees. As the impacts of COVID have evolved\, we have continued to assess our protocols to ensure that they remain reflective of the current status of the pandemic. \nToday\, we are announcing the following updates to the COVID protocols for USET-sponsored meetings: \n\nUp to date* vaccinated attendees will not be required to mask and can fully engage without restrictions. Vaccinated attendees will provide proof of up-to-date status via self-attestation. Daily testing is strongly encouraged.\nUnvaccinated attendees\, or attendees not up to date\, will be allowed to attend\, but will be required to:\n\n\nWear a KN-95 or N-95 mask\, or\nTest negative within 24 hours of the event AND also test negative daily\, if the meeting is for extended days\n\nAs part of our public heath authority responsibilities\, we will continue to provide education\, offer PPE\, rapid tests\, and continue to strongly encourage best practices. Additionally\, for USET/USET SPF meetings hosted by member Tribal Nations\, we will continue to comply with the COVID protocols that each set for their respective nation. While these protocols have changed to better reflect the current state of the pandemic\, updated booster shots\, and availability of treatments options\, the USET TEC strongly recommends ongoing caution due to the health disparities that exist across Indian Country. \n*Please note that up-to-date means that the primary series has been received and any current boosters (if eligible and/or available) have been administered.

SUMMARY:Unfence the Future: Taking Down Fortress Conservation and its Enduring Legacy
DESCRIPTION:A two-day virtual symposium of panel discussions\, poetry\, films\, and a call to action. \nFences create artificial borders between places and mediate the relations between them—what goes in\, what comes out\, and under what conditions. Without the lines that fences inscribe\, there would be no place for border police. Nor could lands be parceled up\, claimed as property to be possessed or plundered. \nIn the history of conservation\, the logic of fencing was institutionalized in what critics call “fortress conservation\,” a project of drawing boundaries between designated wilderness areas and their outsides\, expelling perceived threats to ecological balance–from Indigenous Peoples\, to predator species. In the process\, habitats have been fragmented\, and lifeworlds devastated. \nWhile the science of fortress conservation has been widely discredited\, we continue to live in its world. Where did this model come from? Where does it endure? How is it encoded in current laws\, policies\, and institutional practices—and more broadly\, in our ways of seeing\, understanding\, and relating to the land? And what are activists\, communities\, and institutions doing to take it down? \nJoin community leaders\, conservationists\, legal scholars\, geographers\, historians\, activists\, and artists for a free online symposium dedicated to dismantling fortress conservation and its enduring legacy. \nWEDNESDAY\, APRIL 12\n2:00 pm – 5:30 pm EST / 11:00 am – 2:30 pm PST \nTHURSDAY\, APRIL 13\n2:00 pm- 6:45 pm EST / 11:00 am – 3:45 pm PST \nLearn more or RSVP now \nThis is a 2-day symposium taking place on Zoom–feel free to register for one or both days.
