View Award Description

University of Arkansas (UAF) Native American Tribes Outreach, Education, and Training to Enhance Food Safety and FSMA Compliance - Project title: Education and Outreach to Tribal Producers through the Tribal Food Safety Alliance Abstract: Tribal governments and Tribal producers must frequently address unique legal and practical realities as they implement produce safety practices aligning with the FSMA Produce Safety Rule (PSR). To provide specialized produce safety training and promote public health, the Indigenous Food and Agriculture Initiative (IFAI), joined by partners University of Arizona Federally Recognized Tribal Extension Program (UAZ FRTEP) and the Produce Safety Alliance (PSA), will partner with FDA to continue the Tribal Food Safety Alliance (TFSA), providing specialized, relevant produce safety training, education, and outreach to Tribal stakeholders. This work focuses on Tribal citizens of federally recognized Tribes who are now or are planning grow, pack, hold, or distribute covered produce as deﬁned by the PSR, as well as staff of federally recognized Tribal governments with operations that now or plan to grow, pack, hold, or distribute the same. Our broad objectives are to: 1) provide specialized, appropriate training, education, and outreach on the FSMA PSR to individual producers who are members of federally recognized Tribes, and to federally recognized Tribal Nation staff who operate Tribally owned produce farms; 2) expand the available pool of technical assistance providers with the expertise and resources to provide training to this unique audience; and 3) promote public health by strengthening Tribal-federal partnerships around food safety.
