Dear Friends and Relatives,
Ya’at’eeh! and welcome to our 3rd Annual Community Partners Conference. On
behalf of our board and staff, we are honored that you have chosen to join us for
this important gathering. We have a wonderful group of speakers, topic experts,
funders and, of course, grantees among us this week. Together, we share a
passion and commitment to ensuring all Native children live healthy, happy and
fulfilled lives.
This conference is designed to provide a learning and networking platform that
lifts up and celebrates the work each of you are doing to advance the health and
wellness of Native youth. Because of the success of the first two years, this year
we decided to open up the conference to everyone (not just our grantees). We
look forward to welcoming more and more to this movement in the coming years.
As you know, our Native children and families are facing major health hurdles
throughout Indian Country right now. This sense of urgency requires that we
come together and with collective voice and action reclaim our health. The time
is now. HEALTHY KIDS! HEALTHY FUTURES!
Thank you all for being the activists of health for our sacred children. Thank you
to each of you for attending this gathering and for bringing your experience,
knowledge and passion.
“If we don’t fight hard enough for the things we stand for, at some point we have
to recognize that we don’t really stand for them.” – Paul Wellstone
Please have a great time while you are here at the Pueblo of Isleta and enjoy the
beautiful State of New Mexico.
Sincerely,
Justin Kii Huenemann
President & CEO

Planting the Seeds
Project Title:
Student Fitness Indigenized for Sustainable
Wellness - SFIS Wellness
Project Description:
“Planting the Seeds” is a project built by the
Bad River Food Sovereignty (BRFS) initiative.
The Planting the Seeds project will allow the
community to gain a deeper understanding of
the causes of childhood obesity, type 2 diabetes,
and barriers to health amongst Native American
children in our community. Most importantly,
a community-driven long term strategic food
sovereignty plan will be created by the end of the
project that would include culturally appropriate
action steps to promote healthy living, increase
food access, and foster cultural awareness.
Since the fall of 2012, staff and students have
tracked SFIS student BMI data. So far, the
approaches -- increasing student awareness of
the relationship of activity/nutrition to maintaining
a healthy weight to prevent diabetes -- have
positively impacted the data, but not by enough.
This grant will allow them to build capacity to
better impact obesity by exploring, implementing,
and tracking student-friendly approaches through
a student health and wellness (H&W) leadership
team, which will guide and advise approaches
to nutrition education, ensuring nutritious foods
that appeal to Native adolescents are available
throughout campus (cafeteria, dormitory,
student life center), and identifying ways to
encourage their peers to make healthy food
choices. To ensure school-wide effectiveness, a
data coordinator will collect and review data in
coordination with the Student H&W Leadership
Committee. The result will be a data based,
school-wide action plan, which will include the
capacity for implementation.

to children through a prevention grant T.R.A.I.L.
which stands for Together Raising Awareness
for Indian Life. This program is funded by Boys &
Girls Club of America and was developed through
a partnership with Indian Health Service. This
funding allows ABGC to educate children aged
8-12 on diabetes prevention methods during
the school year. An important part of diabetes
prevention is healthy eating, ABGC wants to make
healthy eating more interesting by offering the
youth served the opportunity to learn about food
sustainability and growth. The 2445 Organics
offers indoor food racks that grow produce all
year long. The hands on experience will help the
youth understand where their food is coming from
and the TRAIL curriculum will help to understand
how it provides them nutrients to serve, creating a
stronger and educated generation.
Project Title:
Qaqamiigux Curriculum
The Aleutian chain and Pribilof Islands covers a
vast and wide area in southwest Alaska and has
some of the most unique food sources in the
world. The project, “Qaqamiigux Curriculum,” will
be a collaboration between the Aleutian Pribilof
Islands Association’s (APIA) Health Department
Wellness Program and the Head Start Program
which operates in four communities in the
region. Through this project, existing nutritional
curriculum will be enhanced and adapted with
culturally relevant curriculum on traditional foods
of the region for Unangan (Aleut) children, ages
3-5, in the APIA Head Start Program. Unanagan
children will have the opportunity to learn about
local traditional foods and their health benefits
(ie. cultural, historical, nutritional, spiritual, and
medicinal, etc) and engage in activities while
learning vital nutrition lessons from their own
environment.

assistant who will be trained to track the progress
of their health and fitness program participants
in afterschool, summer and fall programs. The
addition of the HPDP assistant would dramatically
reduce the amount of time needed to process
data and determine program outcomes, allowing
them to evaluate and plan programs with more
efficiency and effectiveness.

Medicine Root Gardening Program
The Medicine Root Gardening Program provides
American Indian children and their families’ direct
access to fresh, healthy, locally grown foods
and nutrition education within the Medicine
Root District on the Pine Ridge Reservation. The
program is a project of Oyate Teca, a native
controlled non-profit, located in Kyle, South
Dakota. Dedicated funds from Notah Begay III
Foundation’s “Seeds of Native Health” Promising
Program grant will be used to expand the program
and provide the funds necessary for the costs of
instructors and program supplies. This project
will directly reduce the risks of child and adult
obesity and Type 2 Diabetes through education
by incorporating a standard classroom setting with
hands-on skill building in gardening and direct
access to growing and eating healthy foods. The
overarching goal of the project is to increase
the availability of fresh, healthy, locally produced
foods grown by the youth and their families and
teaches healthy eating and cooking skills.
Project Title:
HEALing Ourselves and Our Community
The San Diego American Indian Health Center
(SDAIHC) proposes to expand the current Healthy
Eating and Active Living (HEAL) program to
include a garden-based curriculum that includes
cultural teachings focused on nutrition. The
curriculum will be taught in an outdoor classroom
located in the Sa’mall Lly Hapsh Community
Garden and will include hands-on activities,
cooking classes, and presentations from cultural,
nutrition, and diabetes educators.

Project Title:
Traditional Native Foods: A Tribal School System
Joins the Battle
This project will continue the work sponsored in
2015 to strengthen the Tolani Lake Enterprises,
Inc. (TLE) Youth Program--a unified after school
youth sports and activities and gardening
program. TLE serves the Tolani Lake, Leupp,
and Bird Springs communities, which sit on the
largest food desert in the United States. Families
must travel on average 60 miles round-trip to
purchase fresh produce. Pairing this with declining
tribal government resources to provide local
organized sports and activities is a recipe for high
rates of diabetes and obesity among the youth.
This program offers area youth a safe, healthy
environment after school where they can gather
to play sports and learn to grow fresh produce in
green houses, farm plots, and in gardens located
at the TLE Demonstration Site. Through this
program, the youth are living healthier lifestyles
and inspiring their families to garden at home. This
project is continuing to build local capacity and
provide diverse after school activities to reduce
obesity and Type 2 diabetes rates in the youth
and teaches healthy eating and cooking skills.
The project is fully supported by the Tribal Council
and TMBCI school superintendent. Project staff
will coordinate with food supervisors in the
tribal school system--elementary, mid-, and high
school--for a monthly Healthy Native Foods Day at
each school. The meals will serve 1,670 students
each month from 6/16-5/17 (not July & August).
Meals will be accompanied by healthy foods
verbal presentations. Tribal elders and diabetes
experts will serve as leaders during the meals and
participate in short presentations about healthy
Native foods and their role in preventing obesity
and engage in story telling and other traditional
cultural activities. Monthly healthy traditional
meal preparation and education sessions will be
conducted with high school home economics
classes, reaching 140 students. A tribal Traditional
Cookbook will be created and made available to
families of participating students. A series of short
videos will highlight the program’s successes and
challenges (to share with other tribes).

A FEW HEALTH STATISTICS IN
INDIAN COUNTRY
• The likelihood of American Indian and Alaska Native youth aged 10-19
diagnosed type 2 diabetes compared to non-Hispanic whites is 9 times
higher. (1.74 1000 vs. 0.19 per 1000; 2001).
• There is a 110% increase in diagnosed diabetes from 1990 to 2009 Indian and
Alaska Native youth aged 15-19 years (3.24 vs. 6.81 per 1000) Source: IHS
Division of Diabetes Statistics (unpublished analysis)
• Overweight classification (BMI from 85th-94th percentile) is now the most
common medical condition for AI/AN children
• 1999 IHS Oral Health study found 87% of children aged 6-14 have tooth
decay
• Gaps in research for AI/AN children
HARMFUL EFFECTS OF SODA AND
OTHER SUGARY BEVERAGES
Tooth Decay
Weight
•
Aside from lack of access to
preventative care, poor diet plays
in integral role
Several pediatric studies have
shown sugary beverages to be the
primary source of added sugars in
daily diet of kids
•
Carbonated soft drinks can erode
tooth enamel surfaces, leading to
cavities
Taking in calories in liquid form
appears to encourage over
consumption
•
Excess calories from sugary drinks
can cause obesity
•
Oral disease rates are 2-3 times
higher in AI/AN than in the nonIndian Population
•
•
Low bone
mass/osteoporosis
•
Milk has high content of easily
absorbed calcium, along with
vitamins A, D, B12 and protein. All
are essential to bone and tooth
development.
•
Replacing milk with sweetened
beverages can increase the risk of
osteoporosis and fractures.
•
Nearly 40% of peak bone mass is
accumulated during adolescence
•
13.5% of girls and 36.3% of boys 1219 years of age take in
recommended daily amount of
calcium
