DESCRIPTION:July 16 at 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm Eastern\nWebinar Zoom link \nWebinar ID: 161 835 0375\nPasscode: 143703\nTelephone: +1 669 254 5252 or  +1 646 828 7666\nOne-tap Mobile: +16692545252\,\,1618350375#\,\,\,\,*143703# \nHighly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) (H5N1) virus is widespread among wild birds and continues to cause outbreaks in poultry and spillover to mammals. In March 2024\, HPAI A(H5N1) virus was detected in dairy cattle. To date\, there have been three human cases of HPAI A(H5N1) virus infection identified in dairy farm workers in the United States. The risk to the public from HPAI A(H5N1) viruses is low; however\, people who have job-related or recreational exposure to infected birds or animals\, including dairy cattle\, are at greater risk of HPAI A(H5N1) virus infection. During this COCA Call\, presenters will give an update on the current outbreak in the United States and current CDC surveillance and monitoring efforts. They will also provide information for clinicians on testing\, using antivirals\, and infection prevention and control recommendations. \nIf you are unable to attend the live COCA Call\, the recording will be available for viewing on the COCA Call webpage a few hours after the live event ends. \nThe slide set will be available on the day of the call on the COCA Call webpage under Call Materials. \nFree Continuing Education (CE) will be offered for this COCA Call. \nRegistration is not required.

SUMMARY:Center for Indian Country Development Webinar | Economic Impact Beyond Tribal Economies
DESCRIPTION:July 17 at 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm Central\nRegister \nYou are invited to  join on July 17 the webinar for Economic Impact Beyond Tribal Economies\, a Center for Indian Country Development (CICD) event exploring the local economic impacts of the two largest and fastest-growing sources of revenue for Native communities: gaming and federal contracting. \nTribally owned casinos generate substantial revenue\, which is often reinvested into the community. But little is known about their impact on their surrounding economies. Recent research by CICD shows how Tribally owned casinos affect nearby businesses. \nFederal contracting is a rapidly expanding source of revenue for tribes and Alaska Native Corporations (ANCs) and a sustainable source of income for Native Hawaiian Organizations (NHOs). Recent CICD research finds that tribal enterprises\, ANCs\, and NHOs—collectively known as Native entity enterprises—regularly subcontract to non-Native small businesses. \nIn this webinar\, CICD researchers will present their findings on how gaming and federal contracting impact local businesses and economies. Guest panelists will underscore how Native entity enterprises enhance economic diversification\, foster entrepreneurship\, and strengthen economic infrastructure across various local economies in and outside of Indian Country. Participants will hear from this dynamic line-up\, ask questions\, and explore the lessons Native entities have learned as they continue to pursue viable and sustainable revenue-development opportunities. \nSpeakers: \n\nRandall Akee\, Chair\, American Indian Studies Interdepartmental Program; and Associate Professor\, Department of Public Policy; UCLA\nJacqui Baldwin-LeClair\, Policy Analyst\, CICD\, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis\nElliot Charette\, Senior Research Assistant\, CICD\, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis\nCasey Lozar\, Vice President and Director\, CICD\, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis\nTralynna Sherrill Scott\, Chief Economist\, Cherokee Nation Businesses
