    At the on-site sessions, trainers will present material during the 
morning hours, to allow sufficient additional time for discussion.
    Each session is open to Tribes, State child welfare agency 
personnel, and State court personnel. Separate training sessions are 
being planned for others interested in the new rule and will be 
announced at a later date. Because space is limited, we ask that you 
RSVP to [email protected] for each session you plan to attend by 
submitting your name and the location (or webinar) you plan to attend. 
Please also note that some on-site locations are at government 
facilities that may include security screening, and plan accordingly.
