About CAC
Held each year, the Capital Access Convening (CAC) provides an important opportunity for practitioners, investors, and funders to focus on the impact Native CDFIs are making in their communities, take advantage of practitioner-focused trainings on expanding investment opportunities, housing sector lending, green financing initiatives, and much more, and also celebrate one another.
Over the years, the annual Native CDFI Capital Access Convening is the premier event for the Native CDFI movement. This multi-day event includes intensive training for Native CDFIs, a closed-door session for funders and investors, and networking opportunities. Together, we build on our collective voice to advance economic justice across Indian Country.
