Bush Foundation recognizes Indigenous healers with prestigious fellowship
A half dozen Indigenous leaders are getting a boost for incorporating traditional connections with making people and their communities better.

The recipients of this year’s Bush Foundation Fellowship include the head of a clinic innovating culturally appropriate care, a Native-led birthing initiative, and a system for helping families affected by the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women issue. Each receives a $100,000 grant to develop their work further.

Join Native America Calling to hear from the fellows about their passions and their plans for the future.
