United Indian Health (NATIVE Tobacco Project)

About This Partner/Organization

For nearly 45 years, United Indian Health Services (UIHS) has been a state and national model for planning and delivering quality health care to American Indian people throughout northwestern California. UIHS provides medical, dental, behavioral health, nutrition, traditional health, outreach, and health and wellness services for the American Indian communities of Humboldt and Del Norte Counties (excluding the Hoopa Reservation). UIHS’ mission states that we are “committed to working together with our clients and community to achieve wellness through health services that reflect the traditional values of our American Indian Community.” This project develops creative, innovative, culturally appropriate, and cost effective interventions that result in community and social norm changes.
