​Will there be a Tribal Caucus in 2025?

NWAC is working to establish a host for the 2025 Tribal Caucus. We hope the event will be hosted on Wednesday afternoon.

​What is the Traditional Foods Forum?

A Traditional Food Summit was hosted at the 2011 SfAA in Seattle. The 2025 Traditional Foods Forum builds on this event with exhibits and presentations. Visit the webpage here for updates: https://www.nwaconference.com/nwac2025tff
