Strengthening American Indian Health Services
Expanding access to stable, high-quality, Native-led public health and health care.
We support Native-led solutions to improving the quality and availability of health care. The principle of self-determination guides our work: we build our strategy and programs in partnership with Native nations, urban Indian health centers, and Native-led organizations.
We support health improvement projects in every tribe and urban Indian health center in the state. See all the projects we have funded.
We facilitate collaboration through meetings and site visits to leading American Indian programs.
We have funded tribes and Urban Indian health centers to plan and start new primary care services, school wellness centers, maternal-child health programs, and other health care and public health services.
Since 2015, we have funded 138 projects in Indian Country with $6 million.
Initiatives
In collaboration with tribes and urban Indian health centers, we developed three strategic initiatives:
Reducing American Indian Health Disparities
Improving health and well-being for Native American people in Montana.
Supporting American Indian Health Governance & Leadership
Providing a platform for collaboration among American Indian health leaders to build a strong, Native-led health system
