Our goal at Wisdom steps is to help improve the health of Native American Elders. The program was developed by elders for elders and this can be directly attributed to it’s sucess over the past three years. Each model project was evaulated by the Wisdom Steps Board of Directors and Advisory Committee members. Each member would also gather input from their respective elders before the project was promoted as a Wisdom Step model project. This process provides that the elders support the activity and it would be successful. We do this primarily through our Wisdom Steps Program.

We also sponsor several programs including:
+ Medicine Talk

+ Medicare in American Indian Community
+ Arthritis Education
+ We Walk, Many Together
