A Look Back at 2025 and Ahead to 2026
As 2025 draws to a close, it’s a natural time to pause, reflect and look ahead to what 2026 may hold.
CIRI’s Alaska Native Shareholders are representative of all Alaska Native cultures and are of Athabascan, Tlingit, Haida, Tsimshian, Inupiat, Yup’ik, Alutiiq/Sugpiaq and Aleut/Unangax descent. One of CIRI’s greatest strengths is our Shareholder and Descendant’s diversity.
As 2025 draws to a close, it’s a natural time to pause, reflect and look ahead to what 2026 may hold.
We reflect on a year of growth, balance and a deeper connection.
My name is Charles Lee (Tlingit), and I was appointed by the CIRI Board of Directors this past August.
