(Bozeman)-New funding is on its way to provide transportation outreach and technical assistance to tribes across the Upper Great Plains and Intermountain West from Montana State University.
The funding will support the Tribal Technical Assistance Program. The program will work with American Indian tribal governments to build tribal capacity in program management, grow tribal workforce, cultivate and coordinate partnerships, facilitate technology transfer and the implementation of innovations, and share results of similar initiatives across the country.
The Northern tribal Technical Assistance Program will also work closely with state departments of transportation to help better integrate tribal transportation networks into their own statewide and regional networks.
