Native Youth Generational Leadership Summit

Your Native Youth are invited to attend the 2026 AIHC Native Youth Generational Leadership Summit. We have a limited number of slots available for the summit so are asking Tribes/UIHOs programs to let us know as soon as possible if they will be participating.

The Native Youth Generational Leadership Summit is hosted by the Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe and co-hosted by the Spokane Tribe with support from the American Indian Health Commission and the Washington State Department of Health. Two Tribal leaders are serving as co-hosts of the summit content.

We have a limit of 200 participants and want to fill every spot! For the initial registration, we have designated one chaperone and 4 youth slots per Tribe/UIHO. 


Conference participants should be:

  • AI/AN youth ages 12-26 years old
  • All supporting adults (including chaperones) are required to participate in the summit content along with youth
  • All participants age 18+ are required have their Tribe or organization verify that they have a background check on file that meets their Tribal/organizational requirements. If they don’t, they can apply for a background check through the Washington State Patrol by completing their application.



Registration expectations:

  • Youth participants are expected to participate in all sessions and will be given $100 for completion.
  • All meals will be provided to all participants at no charge.
  • Lodging at the Red Lion Hotel in Port Angeles, WA will be provided and booked by AIHC - lodging confirmation will be sent to the primary registered chaperone after June 8.
  • Other expenses, including travel expenses, are the responsibility of the participants/tribes/UIHOs. 


We also ask that you please let us know if your Tribe/UIHO will not be able to attend so we may accommodate larger groups from attending Tribes.
