Your Path to Better Health Starts Here
Supporting Native Communities
Journey to Health is committed to helping Native American individuals and families prevent and better manage chronic health conditions, including diabetes and heart disease, which affect many Native communities at disproportionately high rates.
We are building relationships with tribal communities to better understand their needs and develop culturally grounded wellness programs focused on nutrition, physical activity, sustainable behavior change and ongoing support.
Wellness is more than a number on a scale. It’s about supporting the whole person, the family and the community.
WHY THIS WORK IS PERSONAL
Family Is at the Heart of the Journey
I am an enrolled member of the Three Affiliated Tribes — the Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara Nation — from New Town, North Dakota.
My passion for helping Native people improve their health is deeply personal. I lost my mother to complications from diabetes when she was only 60 years old, shortly after I turned 19.
That loss stayed with me and helped shape the path that eventually became Journey to Health. It gave me a firsthand understanding of how chronic disease can affect not only one person, but an entire family.
As a mother, I understand how deeply the health of one person can influence the people around them. Through Journey to Health, I hope to help Native individuals and families gain the education, tools and support they need to make healthier choices, manage chronic health conditions and build healthier lives.
My hope is that better health today can help create stronger families and healthier generations to come.
