This is the largest American Indian and Alaska Native gathering each year focused specifically on health. The conference will focus on exploring health policy and its impact on Tribes, advancing Tribal capacity to expand policy work, and policy and political work in the arenas of health care, public, behavioral, and environmental health.

The conference will feature multiple tracks of concurrent breakout sessions, as well as general plenary sessions that feature nationally recognized guest speakers and elected and appointed governmental officials.
