Tomorrow, the United States Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) is hosting a tribal listening session at the National Congress of American Indians 76th Annual Convention & Marketplace in Alburquerque.

To prepare for this listening session, the Native Farm Bill Coalition has drafted a briefing document and talking points related to food and nutrition services in Indian Country, such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR).
