The Tribal Water Summit Design team sought to achieve these goals through providing an educational component to Agencies and offering success stories from Tribes throughout the state to identify what is working and where more work is needed.

Following are 11 quick questions. At the end there is an option to include your name and email. If you are comfortable adding, the information would only be used if we had follow-up questions about your responses, and only be seen by the facilitation team.
