July 10-14, 2026 | Oklahoma City Convention Center
REDW Advisors & CPAs is proud to support the 2026 UNITY National Conference as a sponsor, exhibitor, and workshop leader, continuing our long-standing commitment to advancing financial literacy and leadership development for Native youth.
Hosted annually by UNITY (United National Indian Tribal Youth), this five-day, youth-led event brings together approximately 3,000 Native youth and advisors from across the country for hands-on leadership development, cultural engagement, and peer-to-peer learning. As UNITY celebrates 50 years of empowering Native youth voices, the 2026 conference offers a dynamic program of general sessions, workshops, regional caucuses, and career exploration opportunities.

REDW team members will be onsite throughout the conference in the Education & Career Expo, where we’ll be connecting with students, advisors, and Tribal leaders to share insights on:
- Financial literacy and education pathways
- Career opportunities in accounting, advisory, and consulting
- Resources to support long-term financial and economic success
As a Conference Bag Sponsor, REDW is honored to help enhance the attendee experience while reinforcing our commitment to investing in the next generation of Native leaders.
