ANNUAL REPORT - 2026

Growing Community, Preserving Culture, Building Tomorrow

The CNCV Annual Report is out! And we have had one memorable, impactful year! As the Cherokee Nation fiscal year comes to a close (Oct 1 - Sep 30), we reflect on our times together and look towards the future. Please enjoy the report linked here.

Our theme this year, "Growing Community, Preserving Culture, Building Tomorrow", reflects the heart of our work. Throughout the year, we welcomed new members, expanded our outreach, strengthened our partnerships, and created meaningful opportunities for Cherokee Nation citizens living at-large to reconnect with one another and with our shared heritage. From record-breaking attendance at community gatherings to new language and history learning opportunities, expanded events, traditional arts workshops, food sovereignty initiatives, and youth and wellness programming, we continued to build a vibrant community rooted in Cherokee values.
