California - Native American Health Center - AEGD

Vibrant urban environment. Native American Health Center assists American Indians and Alaska Natives to improve and maintain their physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual well-being with respect for cultural traditions and to advocate for the needs of all Indian people, especially the most vulnerable members of our community. In the 1980's and 1990's, NAHC created new programs, added new funding sources and expanded the scope of services provided. Native American Health Center focused its efforts on prevention and youth with the creation of the youth center, Tribal Athletics Program and working with a cluster of Indian youth service providers. The vision created by our youth challenged us to look to our history for strength, create a new vision for our future generations and respond to our youth's call to action.
