Tribal Leadership Summit

The Tribal Leadership Summit is an opportunity for University of Washington and tribal leaders to gather and discuss issues of importance to American Indian/Alaska Native communities.

For additional information, contact Casey Wynecoop at 206-616-6056 / caw2@uw.edu.

The summit was instituted in 2007 within the framework of the Washington State Centennial Accord which recognizes tribal sovereignty and calls for government-to-government conversation around issues facing tribal communities.
