The Champagne and Aishihik First Nations government is looking for students who are finishing their studies to celebrate them during the 2026 graduation events in Haines Junction, Yukon. This initiative is designed to identify and honour citizens who have completed their programs, ensuring they are formally recognized for their success.
The call for graduates was officially opened on March 5, 2026, to help the community find students who have reached their academic goals this year. This annual process allows the nation to highlight the hard work of its members and provide local support for higher education.
The CAFN Education Department is currently handling the list of students as part of the nation’s commitment to fostering student success. These celebrations are meant to connect individual achievements with the collective goals of the First Nation.
Recognizing student achievement is a core value for the government, which has been self-governing since May 1993. The Chief and Council often participate in these community events to show support for local youth and their connection to their heritage.
