Slide Presentation from the AHRQ 2007 Annual Conference

California Rural Indian Health Board

• The California Rural Indian Heath Board, Inc., (CRIHB) was formed in 1969 to enable the provision of health care to member Tribes in California. It is devoted to the needs and interests of the Indians of rural California and is a network of Tribal Health Programs which are controlled and sanctioned by Indian people and their Tribal Governments.
• CRIHB develops and delivers policies, plans, programs and services that elevate the health status and social conditions of our People; that develop capabilities within local programs; that communicate, educate, and advocate on our shared interests; and that organizes support for our common goals.
• CRIHB does this through program development, legislation and advocacy, organization development, financial resources management, training and technical assistance, and networking and consensus-building.
