Health Newsletter for Native Americans
A new online newsletter, called Honoring Health: Resources for American Indians and Alaska Natives, features a different health topic in each issue. The e-newsletter highlights health-related resources, events, training, and funding opportunities from NIH and other federal agencies.
The first issue focuses on healthy aging. Learn about NIH’s Go4Life campaign, designed to help older adults add exercise and physical activity to their daily lives. The debut newsletter also includes links to information about Alzheimer’s disease and a toolkit that can help older adults learn to make the most of their medical appointments.
Honoring Health: Resources for American Indians and Alaska Natives is produced by NIH in partnership with the Indian Health Service and the Administration for Community Living’s Administration on Aging—all part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
