NGC at Tribal Leaders Summit

Native Governance Center will attend the Tribal Leaders Summit, hosted by United Tribes Technical College, in partnership with the Great Plains Tribal Leaders Health Board, in September. NGC will have a table with information about our programming, some swag, and a giveaway. We will also be hosting a session, “Supporting Native Civic Engagement Through Community-Led Facilitation.” We hope you’ll join the session or stop by our table to say han, boozhoo, or hi!

Our presentation, “Supporting Native Civic Engagement Through Community-Led Facilitation,” focuses on sharing insights from our recent work, ranging from Tribal election candidate forums to advisory committees working with federal agencies. We know that community-centered facilitation strengthens Native civic engagement and supports Native-centered decision-making. This session explores best practices for engaging American Indian citizens and for creating processes rooted in honoring sovereignty.
