The National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) – the nation’s oldest, largest and most representative national organization serving American Indian and Alaska Native nations – will hold its Mid-Year Session from Sunday, June 10 through Wednesday, June 13 at the Egan Convention Center in downtown Anchorage. More than 1,000 American Indian and Alaska Native leaders and representatives are expected to attend the session.

NCAI also works closely with the Alaska Inter-tribal Council (AITC), Rural Alaska Community Action Program (RurAL CAP) and the Alaska Federation of Natives (AFN) to promote the well being and prosperity of Alaska Native people.
