This year, the National Indian Child Care Association is hosting its Biennial Conference in Tulsa, Oklahoma, with the hope that Tribal Nations across the country can come together to share ideas and promising practices to ensure that American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian children are given the best support and resources to thrive.
This conference will focus on weaving paths towards meaningful partnerships that help support Native children and families. We welcome professionals from across the country and the field to come together to forge relationships that will promote the well-being of Native children and families.
