Can 12- to 15-year-olds in Washington now get the COVID-19 vaccine? By Becca Savransky, SeattlePI © Karen Ducey/Getty Images Dr. Kim Vo, a pharmacist from the Seattle Indian Health Board, administers the first of two COVID-19 Moderna vaccine shots to staff from the Seattle Public Schools on March 15, 2021 in Seattle, Washington.

NIMH » Collaborative Hub to Reduce the Burden of Suicide among Urban American Indian and Alaska Native Youth

Leadership Principal Investigators: Dedra S. Buchwald, MD Hub Activity Sites Seattle Indian Health Board, Seattle, Washington Project Overview Urban American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) young adults are at high risk for attempted suicide and for serious mental disorders, substance abuse, gang activity, teen pregnancy, and interpersonal violence. Although many AI/AN youths reside in urban areas, there is limited research to inform the best prevention strategies to address the high rates of suicide among urban AI/AN young adults.

Yet, the specific issues and concerns facing Indigenous people in cities, and the positive protective factors their vibrant urban communities generate are often overlooked and poorly understood. This has been particularly so under COVID-19 pandemic conditions. In the spring of 2020, the United Nations High Commissioner Special Rapporteur on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples called for information on the impacts of COVID-19 for Indigenous peoples. We took that opportunity to provide a response focused on urban Indigenous communities in the United States and Canada. Here, we expand on that response and Indigenous and hu

Indigenous Researcher Transforms Body Bag Into A Healing Ribbon Dress

When the Seattle Indian Health Board requested more personal protective equipment last March, they instead received a box of body bags. The board had no use for them since they call an ambulance when someone dies at their facility, so public health researcher Abigail Echo-Hawk transformed one of the body bags into a traditional Native ribbon dress. Here & Now s Tonya Mosley speaks with Echo-Hawk, a registered member of the Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma, about the impact of COVID-19 on Washington state s Indigenous communities.
