Accessibility Features

Our website incorporates several features designed to enhance accessibility, including:

  • Keyboard Navigation: Our site is navigable via keyboard shortcuts for users who cannot use a mouse.
  • Screen Reader Compatibility: We ensure that our site is compatible with screen readers to assist users with visual impairments.
  • Text Alternatives: All non-text content, such as images, includes alternative text to convey the same information.
  • Contrast and Color: We maintain a high contrast ratio and avoid using color as the sole method of conveying information.
  • Resizable Text: Our text is scalable, allowing users to increase or decrease font size without loss of content or functionality.

Accessibility Standards

We aim to adhere to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, which define requirements for designers and developers to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. These guidelines have three levels of accessibility (A, AA, and AAA). We are partially conformant with WCAG 2.2 level AA, meaning that some parts of the content do not fully conform to the accessibility standard.

2025 Tribal Climate and Health Adaptation Summit

Realities of Tribal Climate Disaster Resilience

Fall 2025

Guided by the theme “Realities of Tribal Climate Disaster Resilience,” the Summit focused on arming Tribal-serving professionals with the knowledge and skills needed to prepare for and act during climate change-related emergencies – such as extreme temperatures, wildfires, and storms – that may affect the Tribes they serve. 

Throughout this one-day training, Tribal-serving professionals working at the intersection of climate change, health, and community wellbeing participated in interactive instruction and peer-to-peer learning activities that built knowledge and resilience in the face of climate emergencies and disasters. Organizers, guest speakers, and attendees were invited to share recent findings, successful practices, and resources that are increasing Tribal resilience to a variety of climate exposures throughout the US. The summit provided opportunities for attendees to reflect individually and connect with each other. The summit also recognized Tribes for significant progress in championing climate and health adaptation.
