STIs in Native Communities: A Conversation with the National Indian Health Board

Today we're talking about Native Americans and sexual health, with an emphasis on sexually transmitted infections (STIs). With any group, conversations on these topics can always come around to a discussion of culture, societal norms and expectations, and so on but there is really a great deal we can explore when talking about Native communities because of the rich diversity within this population but also the importance of Tribal sovereignty. Listen as we explore these topics with our guests from the National Indian Health Board, Lacey Wind, NIHB's Public Health Policy and Programs Director, and Audrianna "Dri" Marzette, one of the Board's Public Health Managers who has worked on STI prevention and programs with Tribal communities.   Indian Health Service National Indian Health Board
