The Kenaitze Indian Tribe was federally recognized as a sovereign, independent nation in 1971 under the Indian Reorganization Act as amended for Alaska. Today, we have more than 1,600 tribal members who live across the Kenai Peninsula and beyond. We employ about 300 full-time and part-time employees. The tribe delivers a variety of programs and services that promote the wellness of our people and the community. In 2014, we opened the 52,000-square-foot Denaina Wellness Center, a fully integrated healthcare facility offering a wide range of services beneath one roof. We also operate a tribal ju...stice system, early childhood education center, Elders center, social services program, and more. At our Annual General Council Meeting every October, we elect members to the Executive Council to serve staggered terms. The seven-member Council governs the tribe in accordance with our constitution, by-laws, ordinances and resolutions. It appoints a Chief Judge to oversee Tribal Court and uphold tribal laws, as well as an Executive Director to manage the tribes day-to-day operations. Our funding comes from federal, state and private grants, as well as third-party revenue generated by our healthcare programs. Its been thousands of years since our people, the Kahtnuhtana Denaina, first inhabited the Kenai Peninsula. We call this area Yaghanen, the good land. After many challenges throughout the years, today we are proud to say Naqantughedu the tide is coming in. We say the tide is coming in because its an exciting time for the tribe and our people as we continue to work toward our mission: To assure Kahtnuhtana Denaina thrive forever.
