This project aimed to provide trainings and workshops for the nine tribes of Kansas, Nebraska, and Iowa that would assist tribal leaders, program coordinators, planners, and managers develop and utilize skills that will allow them to competently address the threat of extreme events and harmful environmental trends their communities face on both a local and regional basis. Key components in the trainings and workshops include providing tribal nations with information needed to create drought early warning systems along with adaptation strategies, and flooding threats as extreme events promise more precipitation over a shortened period of time.
