Community Strengths That Support Rural Alaska Native Youth
This paper describes Alaska Native youth-identified community strengths that support young people’s well-being. Youth from three rural Alaska communities were engaged by the research team in digital storytelling and photovoice to explore their perspectives on what their communities were already undertaking to support youth. Each youth participant was then invited to complete an interview, which was then transcribed, coded, and qualitatively analy…
Indigenous community level strengths for the promotion of wellbeing
As Alaska Native scholars, we share a short essay about lessons learned from a project that addresses suicide within rural Alaska Native communities. From this experience we provide a brief overview of the research study and explain why it is so important to (1) remain authentically engaged in Indigenous relationality, (2) center strengths-based approaches, and (3) focus on community level protective factors within research. From this work, we ha…
It Makes My Heart Smile When I Hear Them Say, ‘Hi Grandpa, We’re Home!’”
Before colonization, Indigenous child protection looked like an interdependent community. Indigenous knowledges and relational actions kept all within its fold safe and well. Colonial dispossession of land, degradation of subsistence rights, boarding schools, ongoing child removal, capitalism, and systems of oppression attempted to disconnect Indigenous peoples from their language, lands, ceremonial practices, stories, dances, songs, family, comm…
Someday, I'll be an ancestor
Intergenerational connectedness broadly encompasses relations among humans, lands, and all living and spiritual beings, and functions as an important part of Indigenous well‐being. Many public health campaigns and interventions aim to promote connectedness to support holistic wellness and reduce health inequities. Currently, however, there are no measurement tools to assess intergenerational connectedness to support culturally grounded research a…
Co‐creating a conceptual model of Indigenous relational wellbeing in early childhood
The purpose of this article is to share our story of conceptualizing Indigenous early relational wellbeing (ERW), specifically reflecting American Indian and Alaska Native worldviews. Our approach is grounded in Indigenous methodologies and guided by a Community of Learning comprised of Indigenous and allied Tribal early childhood community partners, researchers, practitioners, and federal funders. We describe the steps we took to conceptualize c…
Honoring our teachings
Introduction American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) communities continue to flourish and innovate in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. Storytelling is an important tradition for AIAN communities that can function as an intervention modality. To support the needs of AIAN children and caregivers, we (a collaborative workgroup of Indigenous health researchers) developed a culturally grounded storybook that provides pandemic-related public health …
Centering Community, Indigenous Relationships, and Ceremony through an Alaska Native Collaborative Hub to Prevent Suicide and Promote Youth Wellbeing
The Alaska Native Collaborative Hub for Research on Resilience (ANCHRR) engages Indigenous leadership at all levels in a strength-based study to deepen our understanding of community level protective factors in Indigenous communities, which are the collective influences shaping individual wellbeing across time. Overall, ANCHRR aims to position Alaska Native Tribes, Tribal organizations, and community members as the guides for culturally responsiv…
Indigenous Elders' Conceptualization of Wellbeing
Language and cultural revitalization are vital in developing the self-healing capacity of Indigenous Peoples. This study emphasized the perspective of 1st language speaking Elders, our knowledge keepers and community leaders, to critically examine what it means to be well for one Indigenous Nation in the Midwest. Semi-structured interviews with Elders were administered in the Anishinaabe language by fluent second language speakers. The interviews…
Increasing Native Research Leadership Through an Early Career Development Program
Inequities impact American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian populations across various health conditions; in particular, many Native communities bear a disproportionate burden of substance use disorder. Such inequities persist despite concerted efforts of communities and significant research directed toward prevention and intervention. One factor hampering these efforts is the underrepresentation of researchers who are themselves Native…
Storying and re-storying
This article presents three Indigenous scholars’ academic research on Indigenous well-being and describes our personal journeys in relation to the knowledge received from our communities. LaVerne Xilegg Demientieff shares the Five Cs of Healing-Centered Engagement, Jessica Saniġaq Ullrich shares the Indigenous Connectedness Framework, and Emma Elliott shares her observations about the relationality of well-being. As Indigenous scholars, we each h…
Centering Indigenous Knowledges and Worldviews
Globally, Indigenous communities, leaders, mental health providers, and scholars have called for strengths-based approaches to mental health that align with Indigenous and holistic concepts of health and wellness. We applied the Indigenist Ecological Systems Model to strengths-based case examples of Indigenous youth mental health and wellness work occurring in CANZUS (Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and United States). The case examples include r…
Spiritual connectedness through prayer as a mediator of the relationship between Indigenous language use and positive mental health
Results support tribal community expressions of the positive effects of cultural involvement for Indigenous wellbeing, and improve what is known about the interconnectedness of language and spirituality. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2021 APA, all rights reserved)
The Development of a Measure of Alaska Native Community Resilience Factors through Knowledge Co-production
Moving beyond engagement to knowledge co-production in Alaska Native research requires flexibility, shared decision-making and commitment to diverse knowledge systems; this can result in culturally attuned methods, greater tool validity, new ways to understand complex issues and innovations that support community health
Animal Encounters
Introduction—Animal Encounters
How do human and non-human animals interact? Where do encounters take place? How are those encounters represented in literature and the arts, and performed in socio-cultural practices? The present volume concentrates on these topics by focusing on the concept of ‘encounter’. Issues, problems and questions of contact and interaction between human and non-human animals that are addressed in philosophy, literature, the fine arts and socio-cultural p…
For the love of our children
This article draws on Indigenous literature to develop a conceptual framework that makes visible Indigenous child wellbeing. A process of qualitative content analysis identified and examined the core concepts and mechanisms of Indigenous wellbeing. Central to the framework is the concept of connectedness. The premise of this article is that deepening our understanding of Indigenous connectedness can assist with the restoration of knowledge and pr…
Achtsame Naturstudien
In jüngster Zeit gibt es immer wieder Kunstwerke, in denen mit lebenden Tieren interagiert wird. Einige dieser Arbeiten kritisieren einen als unethisch empfundenen Umgang mit Tieren, andere fokussieren völlig tierfremde Themen. Egal welcher Ansatz verfolgt wird, sind Tiere in der Kunst oft struktureller und manifester Gewalt ausgesetzt. Sie werden als Motiv, Material oder Medium verwendet, ohne dass ihnen ein Eigenwert jenseits von symbolischen o…
