SIHB was created through the social justice movement of the 1960s, when Native activists refused to let urban Indians go ignored any longer.

Decades later, SIHB continues with the same mindset: holding institutions accountable so we can support our relatives and care for our community.

On this World Day of Social Justice, find out more about how we are supporting Native health all across Indian country:
