United South and Eastern Tribes, Inc. (USET) hosted the 2017 USET Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) Best Practices Conference in Nashville, TN on March 14-15, 2017. This year’s conference had participation from 14 of the 26 USET member Tribal Nations. The conference focused on new and existing GPRA measures and topics such as reducing stress in the workplace, telehealth, and fitness and wellness programs.
Participants look forward to this conference every year because it is an opportunity for them to learn from and work with their peers to improve their programs.
By using feedback from previous conferences and collaborating with the Indian Health Service (IHS) Nashville Area Office and the Tribal Nation health clinics, USET is able to put together an agenda that is meaningful for the participants. The success of the conference is due to the hard work of USET and IHS staff and to the contributions and presentations from clinics in the area.
