Society For The Study Of The Indigenous Languages Of The Americas




SSILA has an annual winter conference held alternately with the American Anthropological Association and Linguistic Society Of America annual conferences. It awards the
Mary R. Haas Book Award to a junior scholar for an unpublished manuscript that makes a significant substantive contribution to our knowledge of native American languages and the Ken Hale Prize in recognition of outstanding community language work and a deep commitment to the documentation, maintenance, promotion, and revitalization of indigenous languages in the Americas.

SSILA issues two publications: the monthly SSILA Newsletter, in print, and the electronic SSILA Bulletin. The Newsletter contains a great deal of useful information on new publications, including journal articles, and upcoming conferences.
