MISSION - The second of a two-day meeting between several Sioux tribes gets under way Friday on the Rosebud Indian Reservation.

The Rosebud Sioux Tribe is hosting officials from several other Sioux tribes as part of an effort to work together as one nation on issues they deem important.

Some of the issues being discussed during the meeting include education, health care, land, water and child care.

The Oglala Sioux Tribe hosted the first meeting of the tribes back in March.
