This report with an edited transcript and photos is intended to provide the reader with a full perspective of who participated and what was covered. The full transcript and set of detailed presentations are available at: nativefederation.org/alaskaday2018. Open Letter: The Alaska Federation of Natives (AFN) under the leadership of Co-chairs Ana Hoffman and Will Mayo, in partnership with the Alaska Congressional Delegation, the Governor and Lieutenant Governor of the State of Alaska and U.S. Secretary of the Interior, the Honorable Ryan Zinke, were pleased to welcome leaders and decision-makers to this 2018 Alaska Day conference. The purpose was to discuss the risks and threats to national interests in Alaska and the priority investments that will serve to help counter these concerns. Because of emerging threats, Alaska’s place in our national interests is heightened and operations are changing. Critical resources must become available to meet them effectively. This is not a new discussion. What is new is that the Alaska Native people are at the table for these vital discussions on national security and national interests in Alaska. We have continued to build capacity over the years and we need to be involved at this critical time as a trusted partner.
