2008 National Tribal TANF Institute
July 21-24 in Sacramento, California
A unique professional development program from The Center for Human Services, University of California, Davis
Join Tribal TANF professionals from across the country
The National Tribal TANF Institute and Pre-Institute Intensives bring people together from throughout the country for a unique educational experience.
Directors, program managers, supervisors and case managers will all find opportunitites for professional growth and organizational development.
The purpose is to offer information, skill building and networking opportunities that support native people—from urban areas, rural areas, rancherias and reservations—in creating and operating Tribal TANF programs that meet the needs of their people.
Focus on a single area—or choose from many topics
The three-day institute offers nearly 20 workshops in leadership and management, client services, case management and personal and professional development. Featured speakers address central concerns for Tribal TANF organizations as a whole.
Pre-Institute Intensives concentrate on single topics. The focused, day-long training is designed to increase knowledge, build skills and provide feedback in leadership, case management or motivational interviewing.
All sessions are infused with Native American cultural values and traditions.
Conversations and networking with other participants enhance the learning experience. People you meet can be a source of information and support long after the institute.
