Session Description: Native people have been conducting and implementing a variety of practices to reduce risk factors for behavioral problems and health problems for hundreds of years, and these practices have been shown to be effective within their own communities. Participants will leave with an understanding of the challenges Native communities face with “Evidence Based Practices” and examples of culturally-validating “Practice Based Evidence” for Native approaches and programs. Participants will have an opportunity to review tools to codify Tribal practices currently being implemented in Native communities.
