Unbroken Circle
Unbroken Circle
Develop and deliver services that address the unmet needs.
Overview
Due to late stage discovery and/or reoccurrence fifty percent of American Indians (AI) and Alaska Native (AN) patients diagnosed with cancer do not survive. Underserved AI/AN patients are especially at risk due to a multiplicity of causes including economics poor communication limited information and cultural factors. There is currently no tribal nation that has adequate palliative care including cancer pain management or hospice services nor are there any coordinated program efforts to address the issues of cancer pain and palliative care for American Indians and Alaskan Natives. The Unbroken Circle Project is a grassroots program working within the national Native community to initiate services that address the unmet needs of AI/ANs by Connecting patients to a national network of resources working with survivors to create programs tailored to their unique needs providing specialized and confidential upport and raising national awareness of the needs of this community.
