Building trust in healthcare starts with representation, culture, and community.

She shares how UND’s nationally recognized Indians Into Medicine (INMED) program and other Native-focused pathways are increasing the number of Indigenous physicians, nurses, and behavioral health professionals nationwide. She explains the importance of culturally informed training, reducing financial barriers for medical students, and expanding residency opportunities. She also reflects on why so many Native graduates feel called to return home and serve their communities.
