The enduring legacy of colonization, displacement, and family separation continue to impact Native communities’ wellness and create barriers to accessing support.Native American and tribal communities face unique barriers to accessing care, including:<\/b><\/p>\n Our tribal partners often say, \u201cCulture is Prevention, is Treatment, is Wellness, is Life\u201d – with the belief that those who are connected to community and traditional practices can heal together.<\/p>\n Suicide rates are higher among Native American populations than among any other racial or ethnic group in the United States. Important protective factors in preventing suicide among Native American communities include:<\/b><\/p>\n Native Americans are at higher risk for suicide than the general population, but suicide rates vary widely across tribal communities. Each Native community has different mental health challenges and ways of coping with them. Involving Native people in prevention efforts can help ensure programs leverage local resources to meet the needs of the community.<\/p>\n Many external factors can affect a person\u2019s mental health, including:<\/b><\/p>\n Struggling with any of these can negatively affect our mental health, and in some cases lead to trauma.<\/p>\n Research also shows that trauma can be passed down through families. For Native communities and others that have historically experienced oppression and violence, that trauma can affect people generations later. Many Native American communities continue to feel the impacts of the enduring legacy of colonization, displacement, and family separation.<\/p>\n Advocating for culturally responsive healthcare, including mental health access and expertise, is imperative to improve outcomes in our communities. Lines for Life\u2019s Cultural Engagement programs partner with community organizations to provide training and support and create networks of culturally responsive services throughout Oregon and beyond.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Mental Health & Suicide Preventionin Native American & Tribal CommunitiesThe enduring legacy of colonization, displacement, and family separation continue to impact Native communities’ wellness and create barriers to accessing support.Native […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-280904","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.linesforlife.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/280904","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.linesforlife.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.linesforlife.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.linesforlife.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.linesforlife.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=280904"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.linesforlife.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/280904\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.linesforlife.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=280904"}],"curies":[{"name":"\u00a1Buen juego!","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n
Suicide Risk and Prevention<\/h2>\n
