Topics to be Covered:
-Listening to the needs of survivors to shape our efforts.
-Identifying how cultural values will serve as the framework for the program.
-Ethics in Tribal Advocacy.
-Healing and recovery processes with survivors.
-Working with guardrails: core policies and protocols.
-Managing conflict and navigating challenging situations.
-And much more.

Community of Practice calls present an opportunity to discuss current issues, challenges, and successes in your work.
