Partnership for Native Health
Mission:
The mission of the Partnership for Native Health is to develop practical preventive health interventions, together with tribal communities, to determine and solve their own unique health challenges.
Background:
For more than a decade, researchers at CCER have been involved in studies of American Indian and Alaska Native health issues including cancer prevention, treatment and survivorship, exercise, organ donation, understanding numeracy, and a wide variety of other factors that affect the health and well-being of American Indians and Alaska Natives. Our programs focus on research, training, continuing education, technical assistance, and dissemination of information in a way that recognize the unique cultural contexts of American Indian and Alaska Native people.
