[Native_students] Anchorage Workshop on Traditional Foods

[Willy Templeton]

ANCHORAGE - The ALEUTIAN PRIBILOF ISLANDS ASSOCIATION TRADITIONAL FOODS 
PROGRAM is offering a two-day training in Anchorage from October 
18-19. The workshop will be held at the Anchorage Mariott Hotel downtown 
in conjunction with IGAP training.  This 2-day training will address 
questions many communities have about traditional food safety and will 
review a community-based research process that communities and 
organizations can use to address these concerns. The process covered in 
this workshop includes human biomonitoring, dietary surveys, sampling, 
analysis, interpretation, identifying benefits and risks, and effective 
communication and education. This workshop will provide participants 
with the tools necessary to develop a community-based process to 
evaluate the safety of their local foods. 

The workshop is free, however, participants must cover their own travel 
and per diem.  For more information and to register, please contact Sue 
Unger sueu at apiai.org <mailto:sueu at apiai.org> or at 1-800-478-2742.
