NW Native Adolescent Health Alliance
What is the Alliance? The NW Native Adolescent Health Alliance is an inclusive, multi-functional group that meets quarterly in OR, WA, and ID to discuss cross-cutting planning and prevention strategies targeting AI/AN teens and young adults (addressing tobacco, substance abuse, STD/HIV, teen pregnancy, and suicide topics). Our goal is to support regional action planning, resource development, and sharing.
Who Should Attend? All interested parties are invited to attend, including tribal health and prevention staff, IHS, State Health Department personnel, MSPI funding recipients, and University and Community partners from ID, OR, and WA.
