This is a fantastic opportunity to engage with key industry leaders, share insights, and shape the future of economic development.
Participation in this conference is more than just a chance to network; it is a crucial step in supporting our collective economic development programs and advocacy efforts. Your involvement will help ensure that our Tribal voices are heard, and our perspectives are considered in shaping policies and programs that impact our communities and beyond.
Travel stipend application deadline: Friday, August 30, 2024
Eligibility: Must be an employee of a USET member Tribal Nation interested in economic and community development. Funds will be distributed to Tribal Nations, not individuals.
Benefit: USET’s Office of Economic Development will reimburse travel expenses up to $1,500
