A Constellation of Leaders: Celebrating 10 Years of Native Governance Center

We are A Constellation of Leaders

​​​​2025 marks the 10th anniversary of Native Governance Center’s founding. We’re celebrating our decade of life-changing programming, regional and national outreach, free-to-the-public educational offerings, and more.

In Indigenous star knowledge, the stars are our ancestors, our guides, and our teachers. They form constellations that reflect our sacred landscapes, our governance, and our way of life. Just as the stars are interconnected, so too are the leaders of Indian Country—shining brightly, guiding our people, and shaping the future together.

The event will convene Native leaders from across Mni Sota Makoce, North Dakota, and South Dakota, including past participants in our Leadership Development, Tribal Governance Support, and Tribal Finance programs. In addition to further fostering the friendships and networks that strengthen Indian Country, the celebration will feature talks where we will explore new trends and triumphs in the Native nation rebuilding movement.
