Native Reach™ Team Joins Indigenous Health Leaders at APHA Conference

Native Reach™ team attends The American Public Health Association (APHA) Conference 2024

We were honored as Native Reach™ team members to address the American Indian, Alaska Native, and Hawaii Native Caucus for the American Public Health Association (APHA) in Minneapolis, MN.

Pictured with Isiah and me at our exhibit are Michael Bird and Collette Adamsen. Ron Mori was our photographer – thanks Ron!

Michael Bird is amazing in his ability to bring people together to support and promote Indigenous health efforts, and has been integral in the APHA for over 40 years. Collette, a PhD at the National Resource Center on Native American Aging, is committed to identifying Native Elder health issues and improving the quality of life and delivery of related support services to the Native aging population.

Check out the American Indian, Alaska Native, and Hawaii Native Caucus if you get the chance. Many amazing people like Michael and Collette are doing great work that is making a difference.
