Train the Trainer

Public health emergencies are matters of serious concern for every community. Therefore, it is critical for all jurisdictions, including Tribal Nations, to have the capacity to effectively respond to these threats. The Tribal Legal Preparedness Project (TLPP) created two in person training programs, a half-day and a 2-hour training, designed to assist Tribal Nations and their key partners with enhancing their public health legal preparedness capacity and better coordinate emergency preparedness, response, and recovery activities across jurisdictions.

The Training Manager Guide is a step-by-step guide created to help Tribal Nations and their key partners conduct their own public health legal preparedness training. The TLPP encourages training managers to use this guide and sample documents to prepare for and deliver upcoming training related to legal preparedness. Content for the in-person trainings are available for download below. The content may be modified and/or customized to meet the needs of the community intending to conduct these trainings.
