Education

NIHB is dedicated to providing comprehensive education to enhance understanding and collaboration in Indian Country. We offer specialized training on working with Tribes— focusing on Tribal sovereignty, cultural competency, and the unique needs of Native communities. Our education programs also include training on navigating the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), helping Tribes and health leaders optimize access to vital health resources and funding. Additionally, we provide public health training to strengthen Tribal capacity in areas such as health promotion, disease prevention, and emergency preparedness. Through these efforts, we aim to equip stakeholders with the knowledge and tools to support and advance the health of Tribal Nations.
