Date: November 5, 2026

Time: 2:00 – 3:30 pm EST

Training Description:

A practical guide to designing and using needs assessments in Tribal contexts, balancing data, lived experience, and sovereignty considerations. Covers method selection, basic analysis, and translating findings into priorities that can support plans, budgets, and funding requests.

Training Objectives:

• Distinguish needs vs. preferences and define assessment purpose, scope, and decision use

• Select fit-for-purpose methods (surveys, interviews, focus groups, listening sessions, secondary data) and avoid common bias traps

• Apply ethical and culturally appropriate practices (confidentiality, consent, data stewardship, respectful question design)

• Convert findings into prioritized needs statements and funding-ready justification language
