Food Safety Needs Assessment IRB Protocol #1904194839 

The Indigenous Food and Agriculture Initiative (IFAI) was selected by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to provide Native American Outreach, Training, Technical Assistance and Education to ensure compliance with the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). The FSMA was passed by Congress in 2010 and the final requirements implementing the FSMA were put into place in late 2015. IFAI is pleased to function in this role, but needs your input to help us design the best program to meet your needs. Please take a moment to reflect on and complete the following questions.

The purpose of the survey is to find out how IFAI can best meet the food safety compliance needs under the new Food Safety Modernization Act for training, technical assistance, education and training. The questions are designed to assist IFAI in determining best locations and focus for curriculum and content. Those having questions about this survey should contact Colby Duren (cduren@uark.edu) or Erin Shirl Parker (eshirl@uark.edu). Those with IRB concerns should contact irb@uark.edu. Completing this survey should take no longer than 3-5 minutes. Your participation is entirely voluntary and refusing to participate in the survey will not adversely affect any other relationship with the University of Arkansas Indigenous Food and Agriculture Initiative.

Thank you for participating in our survey. Your feedback is important.
