Health Education Program
WELCOME!

The mission of the Indian Health Service Health Education Program web site is...

To provide basic information about the Indian Health Service Health Education Program that encourages a partnership with American Indian/Alaska Natives that results in American Indians and Alaskan Natives becoming active participants in the improvement of their health status. Believing that many of the health problems found in American Indian and Alaskan Native communities are the result of behavior and lifestyle choices, the Health Education program is committed to an emphasis on wellness through health promotion and disease prevention.

The purpose of this site is to provide up-to-date information about:

    		•

    Current Health Education-sponsored projects, activities and events

    • The National IHS Patient and Family Education Initiative

    • Support and resources available to health care providers serving communities throughout Indian country

    • Potential job opportunities within Health Education
