Tribal Unity Gathering

Tribal Unity Gathering XXVII

April 12-13, 2023

The theme of this year’s event is Calrunata Yuungnaqpiallerkarput, Striving to Become the Healthiest People. This theme highlights YKHC’s vision of using Native self-determination and culturally relevant health systems to support the health of the people in the YK Delta.

Online registration begins  February 7 and runs through March 10, 2023. Because of the advance time needed to arrange travel and lodging, there are no substitutions or changes for delegates after March 10. 

We look forward to seeing registered delegates at the Tribal Gathering April 12-13!
