About us
Afognak Native Corporation (Afognak) is an Alaska Native village corporation that formed in 1977 through the merger of Port Lions Native Corporation and Natives of Afognak, Inc., that were established through the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act of 1971 (ANCSA). Afognak is responsible for meeting its shareholders’ economic, social, and cultural needs. Afognak has over 1,200 shareholders, many of whom continue to live in Port Lions and elsewhere on Kodiak Island. Afognak is headquartered in Kodiak, Alaska, with administrative and subsidiary offices located in Anchorage and throughout the United States, and its companies perform work in various international locations as well. Afognak is managed by a nine-member Board of Directors, all of whom are Alaska Native shareholders of Afognak. The Board created Alutiiq, LLC (“Alutiiq”) and various subsidiaries of Afognak and Alutiiq to develop core competencies in commercial and U.S. government contracting industries and to ensure a successful future for its customers and shareholders. Afognak’s wholly owned subsidiary, Alutiiq, LLC, is named after the Alutiiq people of the Kodiak Archipelago. Afognak owns 248,000 acres of land in the Kodiak Archipelago, primarily on Afognak Island. Our lands represent our most valuable asset. They have formed the core of our financial success as a Corporation, and they demonstrate continued value through shareholder use for culture, subsistence, economic development, and recreational activities.

On March 27, 1964, one of the largest natural disasters in U.S. history, the “Good Friday” earthquake and tsunami, destroyed our traditional home of Afognak. Following the destruction of our village, many chose to relocate and build a new village on Kodiak Island. The new village was named Port Lions after the philanthropic “Kodiak Island Lions Club,” that helped build the new community. Others moved to the city of Kodiak and other parts of Alaska and the lower 48. Today the Ag’wanermiut (People of Afognak) live in Port Lions, Kodiak City, other parts of Alaska, the Lower 48, and other countries, but our ties to our traditional homeland, the Alutiiq language (Sugt’stun), subsistence way of life and culture continue no matter where they may live today. Today, Afognak Alutiiq traditions are passed on to new generations through a number of innovative programs and initiatives.

Afognak Native Corporation is a member of the Native American Contractors Association that supports this effort to codify the Office of Native American Affairs through the Native American Entrepreneurial Opportunity Act.
On January 31, 2024, the Native American Entrepreneurial Act, introduced by Representative Davids (D-KS-3), and Representative Crane (R-AZ-2), unanimously was voted out of the US House Committee on Small Business. The Native American Entrepreneurial Opportunity Act would codify the ONAA into federal law, establishing an Assistant Administrator role to oversee its operations and report directly to SBA leadership. "The Office of Native American Affairs provides important opportunities, support, and education to numerous Native owned businesses across the country,” said Quinton Carroll, Executive Director, Native American Contractors Association. “The Native American Entrepreneurial Opportunity Act will advance and move the office forward with stability to bolster economic development in Native communities.” S. 1156, the companion legislation in the Senate was introduced by Senators Hickenlooper (D-CO), Lummis (R-WY), Hirono (D-HI), and Mullin (R-OK) is currently on the Senate Calendar under general orders. https://lnkd.in/eFjzPBKn
