Webinar: Mobility & Equity in Indian Country: The Future of Tribal Technical Assistance

Host: The Southwest Transportation Workforce Center

Date: Wednesday, November 17, 2021

Time: 1-2pm Eastern Time

Since 1991, the Tribal Technical Assistance Program (TTAP) has worked to build professional capacity within federally recognized Tribes to support the management of their transportation assets. In December 2019, funding for the nation’s seven TTAP centers was suspended pending a re-evaluation of the program’s ability to deliver workforce training and technical assistance in a regionally significant and impactful way. Join members of the TRB Standing Committee on Native American Transportation Issues and the National Indian Justice Center to explore why engaging and developing the Tribal workforce is critical to maintaining the nation’s rural transportation infrastructure and how the future of Tribal technical assistance is key to achieving that goal.

Panelists:

Dr. Tyler Reeb, Host, Mobility Matters Podcast
Raquelle Myers, Executive Director, National Indian Justice Center
Ron Hall, TRB Standing Committee Native American Transportation Issues
Cameron Ishaq, FHWA Special Liaison, LTAP/TTAP Initiatives
