The NIHB National Tribal Health Conference is a week-long gathering dedicated to serving American Indian and Alaska Native Tribes in all areas of health, including behavioral, public, and environmental health.

This event highlights the interconnectedness of policy, advocacy, and best practices in Indian health. Attendees can engage in Tribal listening and consultation sessions, hands-on training, plenary sessions, and workshops covering critical topics like health equity, Indigenous determinants of health, Tribal public health, behavioral health, climate change, and funding for Indian Health. With specialized programming for Native youth, Tribal veterans, and elders, the conference also features a fitness event, exhibit hall and marketplace, culture night, poster sessions, and the prestigious Heroes in Health Awards Gala. Join us to celebrate culture, share knowledge, and advance health in Indian Country!
