2026 National Tribal TANF Institute

The 2026 National Tribal Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) Institute will bring together Tribal TANF leaders, practitioners, and partners to share strategies, innovations, and lessons learned from across Tribal communities. The University of California Davis will host this event on July 14 and 15, 2026 in Sacramento, California to offer an opportunity for Tribal TANF programs to learn from peers, explore emerging approaches, and strengthen networks that support their communities. Sessions will focus on practical solutions, program improvement, and culturally grounded practices that help communities address employment, family stability, and economic mobility. For Tribal TANF practitioners, the institute provides a space to exchange ideas, discover new resources, and build connections that can support ongoing program development. There is a registration fee for participation.
