Health Disparities Research with American Indian Communities
American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) communities experience notable health disparities associated with substance use, including disproportionate rates of accidents/injuries, diabetes, liver disease, suicide, and substance use disorders. Effective treatments for substance use are needed to improve health equity for AI/AN communities. However, an unfortunate history of unethical and stigmatizing research has engendered distrust and reluctance …
The qasgiq model as an indigenous intervention
The intervention, the Qungasvik (phonetic: koo ngaz vik; "tools for life") intervention, is organized and delivered through a Yup'ik Alaska Native process the communities term qasgiq (phonetic: kuz gik; "communal house"). We describe a theory of change framework built around the qasgiq model and explore ways this Indigenous intervention mobilizes aspects of traditional Yup'ik cultural logic to deliver strengths-based interventions for Yup'ik yout…
Substance Use Research with Indigenous Communities
Highlights Indigenous Peoples are concerned with previous experience of substance use research as disempowering. Community psychology principles may inform ethical community‐driven substance use research. We explore these principles through seven Indigenous substance use studies across the U.S. and Canada. Indigenous substance use research reflects, expands, and challenges community psychology principles. We discuss implications for Indigenous su…
With a Spirit that Understands
This retrospective analysis of a long‐term community‐based participatory research ( CBPR ) process spans over two decades of work with Alaska Native communities. A call to action from Alaska Native leadership to create more effective strategies to prevent and treat youth suicide and alcohol misuse risk initiated a response from university researchers. This CBPR process transformed into a collaborative effort to indigenously drive and develop solu…
Creating Qungasvik (A Yup'ik Intervention “Toolbox”)
This paper describes the development of a Yup'ik Alaska Native approach to suicide and alcohol abuse prevention that resulted in the creation of the Qungasvik , a toolbox promoting reasons for life and sobriety among youth. The Qungasvik is made up of thirty‐six modules that function as cultural scripts for creating experiences in Yup'ik communities that build strengths and protection against suicide and alcohol abuse. The Qungasvik manual repres…
Indigenizing CBPR
The process that community based participatory research (CBPR) implementation takes in indigenous community contexts has serious implications for health intervention outcomes and sustainability. An evaluation of the Elluam Tungiinun (Towards Wellness) Project aimed to explore the experience of a Yup'ik Alaska Native community engaged within a CBPR process and describe the effects of CBPR process implementation from an indigenous community member …
Yup'ik Culture and Context in Southwest Alaska
This paper provides an introduction to key aspects of Yup'ik Inuit culture and context from both historical and contemporary community member perspectives. Its purpose is to provide a framework for understanding the development and implementation of a prevention initiative centered on youth in two communities in Southwest Alaska as part of collaboration with the University of Alaska Fairbanks and the National Institutes of Health. This paper is w…
Where I have to learn the ways how to live
What is it like to grow up Yup'ik and come of age today in a traditional hunting-gathering community setting located in a remote region of Alaska? Current research describes a contemporary experience often laden with trauma and crisis. Youth in Yup'ik communities today face threats to their very survival as they encounter, early on, things that their ancestors never faced-including alcohol-related deaths, violence in many forms, and high rates of…
Repatriating Words
My name is Michelle, and I am an Anthropologist. It has taken a while for me to be able to say that without all the feelings of guilt and shame that often come with this particular academic orientation. Why the guilt and shame? It is because my involvement with Native peoples long preceded my involvement with anthropology, and I had seen and learned of the negative legacy that many anthropologists left in their wake. I came into anthropology with…
