NCN extends its appreciation to the National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) and the Indian Gaming Association (IGA) for including NCN in a powerful two-days of tribal policy briefings and engagement May 13-14 in Washington, D.C.

NCN is excited to announce its summer training series Risk-Proof Your Funding: Compliance Tactics for Native CDFIs.

Today, the Native CDFI Network (NCN) and 66 Native CDFIs and other key partners delivered a powerful message to Capitol Hill, calling on Congress to reject the proposed defunding of the Native American CDFI Assistance (NACA) Program in President Trump’s FY 2026 Discretionary Budget Request.

To ensure that Native CDFIs continue receiving the critical support they need, we must speak up now. To support your outreach, we’ve prepared a message template you can download, personalize, and send directly to your representatives.

We’re proud to share NCN’s Quarter 1 Impact Report — a powerful reflection of the momentum, unity, and determination of Native CDFIs across the country.

Members of the Native CDFI Network (NCN) Board of Directors met in Washington, D.C. with CDFI Fund Director Pravina Raghavan, Clint Hastings, and Fatima Abbas, Director of the Office of Tribal and Native Affairs at the U.S. Department of the Treasury.

Today, the Trump Administration released a high-level overview of its FY 2026 Discretionary Budget Request, or “skinny budget,” which features a 90% reduction in funding for the CDFI Fund from its FY 2025 funding level of $324 million to just $33 million.

This webinar will provide critical updates on the status and future of the revised Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) rule, including what potential changes or a full rescission could mean for Native CDFIs and other mission-driven lenders.

The Native CDFI Network (NCN) is once again partnering with the Federal Reserve to distribute the annual CDFI survey. We encourage all Native CDFIs to participate to ensure our industry is well-represented in the data.
