[NYAPRS Enews] Today @ 2pm: Native American Health and Healing Approaches from the STAR Center

[Briana Gilmore]

NYAPRS Note: Join our friends at the STAR Center this afternoon for a webinar about health and health approaches for indigenous peoples. Understanding the approaches, values, and standards inherent to this culturally nuanced form of care can help direct service providers offer more appropriate treatment to people of indigenous descent, but may also offer insights into care for other culturally diverse peoples.

Description:

Understanding and embracing indigenous healing approaches is an important way to move forward in addressing healthcare inequalities, especially in Native communities. In this STAR Center webinar, our presenters will share examples of self-care and healing approaches that are used in urban, rural and frontier communities, describe the history, foundations, values and standards inherent in these approaches as well as offer recommendations for how these approaches may be better engaged by Native people in states, territories and tribal governments across the country.  Join us for another provocative and inspiring webinar presentation on approaches to eliminating the health and mental health disparities in our communities.
