The National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) needs the support and contributions of tribal and individual members to continue our work to promote Indian treaty, traditional, cultural and other rights. The NCAI engages in both legislative and administrative advocacy on behalf of its membership. Moreover, the NCAI strives to ensure that all member tribes and individuals are informed and educated about all such issues affecting the well-being of Indian nations.

The NCAI is proud to provide the Sentinel newsletter to its membership on a quarterly basis. The Sentinel provides an update on NCAI activities and is a resource for up-to-date information on legislation appropriations, regulatory activity and court decisions.

The NCAI is a non-profit organization supported primarily through membership dues and contributions. Individuals or organizations interested in making a tax deductible contribution should make checks payable to:
