The National Indian Health Board (NIHB) is partnering with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) National Center for Environmental Health (NCEH) and the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) to host a series of regional summits surrounding environmental health in Indian Country. Each summit will feature Tribal leaders, environmental health practitioners, environmental health subject matter experts, Tribal, local, state, and federal partners engaging on topics relevant to each region.

Summit attendance will be free of charge, and will be held on April 14, 2023 at the Choctaw Conference Center in Durant, Oklahoma.
