COVID-19 Response: Promising Practices for Supporting Tribal Communities

In this session, nurses on the front line shared their insights on addressing vaccine hesitancy and lessons learned through COVID-19 while working with tribal communities. We heard on-the-ground strategies from nurses on the Navajo reservation and an epidemiologist who works on the Tribal Support Section in CDC. Our expert panel also advised on available COVID resources and supports for partnering with tribal communities.
