With this funding, NIHB will work alongside other national partners to strengthen public health systems, address health disparities, and promote health equity, particularly for American Indian and Alaska Native populations. Our focus will be on:
- Strengthening Tribal public health capacity and infrastructure;
- Enhancing collaboration between Tribal health organizations and other public health entities;
- Improving Tribal maternal health outcomes;
- Supporting efforts to address social determinants of health and reduce health inequities in Tribal communities.
This award recognizes the importance of Tribal public health leadership and the ongoing need to advance health outcomes in Native communities. We are honored to be part of this initiative and are committed to making meaningful progress for the health and well-being of all Native people. Thank you for your continued support as we continue this important work.
