What is the Tribal Leadership Council & Conference?
The Tribal Leadership Council and Conference is a unique gathering dedicated to empowering tribal leaders and those on the path to leadership. It’s more than just a conference—it’s a space for collaboration, growth, and community-building. Designed by and for tribal people, this event centers Indigenous values and strengthens leadership rooted in sovereignty, service, and sustainability.
What’s the goal of the conference?
Our goal is to provide practical tools, strategic insight, and meaningful connections that help tribal leaders thrive. Whether you’re a seasoned official, an administrator, or just beginning your leadership journey, this conference will equip you with the knowledge and network you need to lead with confidence and cultural integrity.
Who should attend?
This conference is for any tribal leader or aspiring leader—tribal council members, program directors, administrators, youth leaders, and community champions. If you’re working to improve your community, this event is for you.
Why choose this conference?
There are many great educational events out there, but this one is tailored specifically for tribal leadership. We focus on culturally relevant content, peer-to-peer learning, and real-world solutions. It’s also one of the best places to build lasting relationships with fellow tribal professionals who understand the unique challenges and strengths of tribal governance.
