Attached are the top five preliminary recommendations reported

recommendations represent several hours of discussion, thought and
work by those Tribal representative present at the Summit. The
proposals are intended to complement existing efforts by Tribal Nations
to help their communities effectively address drug and alcohol issues.
Not all Nations were represented at the Summit. Not all decision
makers within Nations were able to join their colleagues on August
1. For this reason, Tribal Nations will work with NAMSDL to
establish a review process to ensure that all Nations and their decision
makers have an opportunity to refine, enhance and add to the preliminary
recommendations which their colleagues crafted at the Summit. NAMSDL
will make available through its website any such future refinements,
enhancements or additions.
