POLICY & ADVOCACY

POLICY PRIORITIES

Founded in 2009, The Native CDFI Network (NCN), is the only national member coalition of Native CDFIs in the country. Our mission is to grow and strengthen Native CDFIs through policy advocacy, capacity building and access to capital that supports the economic prosperity of American Indian, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian communities. NCN is governed by a nine-member national board of directors elected by NCN members. Priorities are identified in the categories of Federal and Capacity Priorities and are subject to revision year-round.

Our Board of Directors approved the following policy priorities as a direct result of member input at the NCN Policy Summit.
