American Indian Unity Conference
United Tribes of North Carolina's activities include the sponsorship of the annual North Carolina Indian Unity Conference and the annual Miss Indian North Carolina Pageant. We provide support as needed to the North Carolina Senior Citizen Coalition, the North Carolina Native American Youth Organization, and the North Carolina Native American Council on Higher Education. UTNC coordinates the production of the annual North Carolina Indian Heritage Month poster, and provides scholarships to outstanding American Indian students.
United Tribes of NC plans and hosts the annual American Indian Unity Conference to bring Native people together. The conference includes general assemblies with key speakers, a variety of informative workshops focused on national and North Carolina topics pertinent to Native people, presentation of community and veterans' awards to outstanding individuals in the North Carolina American Indian communities, presentation of education scholarships, arts and quilting awards, and a number of popular events such as the Friday night banquet and dance, a hospitality hour, gospel singing, Saturday breakfast & awards, and a cultural exchange/powwow celebration.
