Oweesta’s annual Native CDFI Capital Access Convening (CAC) is anticipated to happen in person in 2022! We’re excited to bring everyone together again for the first time since Hawaii in 2019. Make sure to save the date for Juneau, Alaska from June 28-30, 2022, as we convene for capacity building, networking, and celebration.

Over the years, our annual CAC has sparked strategic discussions around targeting capital to Native communities. This year’s theme “Turning the Tide” reflects this unique moment in time and the opportunity we have as agents of change to help local economies recover, rebuild, and realize their self-determination. Join us for this multi-day event of unparalleled training for Native CDFIs, a closed-door session of funders and investors, networking opportunities, and festivities honoring the Alaskan Native community for their hospitality.

The Oweesta team is working diligently to ensure participant safety during in-person events. Further communications will share additional details on what to expect. For any questions, please contact Heather Rademacher Taylor, Director of Programs at heather@oweesta.org.
