Buffalo’s Fire, IMFA head to NCAI Mid Year Convention

Our real-time coverage will bring you to the heart of NCAI’s key discussions.

Monday, we’ll report on efforts to address violence against Native women, strategies to close tribal finance data gaps through intertribal cooperation, and priorities in Native education policy. Our team will also track important committee work focusing on governance, economic and community development, land and natural resources management and health, including MMIP-aligned public health issues.

Tuesday’s coverage will shift to crucial discussions on Native child and family well-being, including trauma recovery and boarding school healing initiatives. We’ll explore Indigenous determinants of health and public health equity, alongside high-level legal priorities from NCAI and Native American Rights Fund and policy updates from the Department of the Interior. The day will also feature dedicated attention to economic data sovereignty and the critical efforts to rescue and recover missing and exploited Native children.
