Our history, values and traditions make us who we are.
Our connection makes us strong.
The Native & Strong campaign was developed in partnership with the 29 federally recognized tribes in Washington and the Washington State Department of Health (WA DOH). Rooted in the belief that Connection is Prevention, this suicide prevention campaign is led by the leadership, wisdom, and priorities of Washington tribes, with the support of WA DOH. Through this government-to-government collaboration, Native & Strong focuses on raising awareness, providing education, and sharing resources to support local efforts in preventing suicide and strengthening the well-being of tribal communities now and for future generations.
