DES Tribal Informational Forum
Description:
Join the DES Office of Tribal Relations on April 24th to learn about DES updates on programs, policies, and/or services. Each Division will attend, and you can ask questions in individual break-out sessions with a specific Division. This is not a Tribal Consultation, it is a forum for tribes, tribal program staff, and tribal stakeholders to engage and be made aware of the programs and services DES provides. If tribes are interested in a Tribal Consultation, please contact the Tribal Relations Manager; contact information is at the bottom of this notice.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
To self-select a specific Breakout Room during the Forum, you must have either:
- Zoom Desktop client or the mobile app: version 5.3.0 or higher, or
- Zoom Chrome OS: version 5.0.0 (4241.1207) or higher.
If not, we will have to manually move you into the break-out room, which can take time away from your session. Please consult your technology department or manager to ensure you have the correct version of Zoom.
