The purpose of this report is to: (1) Provide Alaska Native elders with the opportunity to voice their needs and requirements for culturally congruent care. Alaska Native Elders are being invited from across the state of Alaska to express their wishes and expectations for services and care that are consistent with their traditional community heritages, tribal values, and customs. (2) Empower Native communities to incorporate traditional and contemporary health practices into their health care systems. During the first year of the three-year project, the plan is for the information to be shared and made available to Native communities through summary papers, handouts, and a web site.
