The OVW NCAI Violence Against Women Task Force Caucus will be rescheduled due to the postponement of the OVW's 20th Annual Government-to-Government Violence Against Women Tribal Consultation.
The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and its Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) have postponed the 20th Annual Government-to-Government Violence Against Women Tribal Consultation, originally scheduled for October 28-30, 2025.
NCAI thanks the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and its Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) for rescheduling the postponed 20th Annual Government-to-Government Violence Against Women Tribal Consultation to January 21–23, 2026, at the Mystic Lake Casino Hotel in Prior Lake, Minnesota. A virtual option will be available, as well. This will allow for greater participation by Tribal Leaders and stakeholders on the important issues that will be discussed.
The National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) Task Force on Violence Against Women will host a caucus for Tribal leaders and Tribal organizations to focus on the priorities for discussion at the Department of Justice’s annual government-to-government consultation among Tribal Nations and the Office of Violence Against Women (OVW).
The caucus is a closed event intended only for Tribal leaders, Tribal proxies, and Tribal organizations. Registration is required. We ask that federal partners, press, and other third parties not attend.
