2026 WIEA Annual Conference

The conference offers an opportunity to bring together community members, educators (both Indian and non-Indian), businesses, and organizations who are interested in Indian education. WIEA is the only state conference that specifically addresses Native American educational issues.

WIEA is a non-profit organization that was established in 1985 by a group of concerned Indian educators to promote educational opportunities for Indian people in Wisconsin. With a unified effort by both Indian and non-Indian members, it has evolved into a proactive organization that continually works on the issues that affect Indian education. WIEA works with Wisconsin’s state legislators and annually addresses the state’s governing bodies at the capitol.
