Join us for a catalyzing conversation about the health outcomes of historical trauma. Stacy A. Bohlen, a member of the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians and the CEO of the National Indian Health Board, will take an historical look at how the legacies of colonization have led to health disparities in Tribal communities that persist today. Bohlen will discuss how the conditions in which people are born, grow, work, live, and age influence their health, as well as how policies such as the Indian Removal Act and Federal Indian Boarding Schools separated American Indians and Alaskan Natives from cultural practices that traditionally made them less vulnerable to disease. Bohlen will also discuss examples of resilience and creativity among American Indian and Alaskan Native communities to improve their physical and mental health.
