Thank you to the Choctaw Nation for hosting the recent Inter-Tribal Council (ITC) meeting. It is always great to gather with the Five Tribes to discuss tribal progress and work together on solutions to issues facing First Americans.

We appreciate the partnership of the Cherokee, Choctaw, Muscogee (Creek) and Seminole Nations, and we look forward to all that we will continue to accomplish together.

Serving citizens is our priority. We continually work to make it easier for Chickasaws to connect with the resources that best meet their needs. Now with hundreds of programs and services, we created a new way for citizens to browse, discover and apply for what they need.

We are pleased to introduce Chokwaa, a secure, easy-to-use digital platform. A Chickasaw word meaning, “to come in,” Chokwaa enables you to create a profile and personalize your service experience by adding details that make it easier to find the most suitable programs and services.

Chokwaa is the direct result of citizen input, and we are excited to make resources easier to find and use. Together, we have created a new way to enhance the lives of Chickasaws, and we look forward to the impact it will have.

To enjoy the convenience of Chokwaa, please visit Chickasaw.net/Chokwaa to learn more about creating a personal profile. We look forward to serving you and your family.
