General Information
Overview: |

The Direct Service Tribes (DST) Advisory Committee invites you to attend the DST Fourth
National Meeting. This event will convene Tribal leaders, healthcare administrators and
healthcare providers from across the nation to discuss the health related issues and
concerns of Tribes who receive their health care directly from the Indian Health Service.
This meeting will provide education and information to assist in the elevation of health
status of DST to a level comparable with the rest of the United States. This year's
meeting will focus on youth, health promotion/disease prevention and behavioral health
issues. An innovative group process concept that is new to this meeting - "Open Space
Technology" - will be in use.
