The Qawalangin Tribe of Unalaska has submitted an application to the U.S. Department of Defense, Innovative Readiness Training (IRT) Program, to provide an updated needs assessment to evaluate the Tribe’s progress in implementing recommendations which grew out of the IRT Mission to Unalaska in July and August of 2020.
Military Subject Matter Experts (SME) from the 351st Civil Affairs Command will assess the potential for follow-on IRT missions aimed at improving civil services on the island of Unalaska. The proposed IRT mission will most likely occur during the spring of 2023 taking two-three weeks.
