Episode 6: Focusing on Indigenous Health and Economic Prosperity: Delivering Culturally Specific Health Care and Financial Services to the Lower Sioux Indian Community in South Central Minnesota

  • Resumen

  • While comprising approximately 1.1% of Minnesota’s population, data show that American Indians here suffer a disproportionate percentage of disparities in health, income, home ownership, education, and more compared to white Minnesotans. The disparities reflect the painful history of Native tribes in Minnesota and the systemic racism and generational trauma they have experienced.

    In this this episode, host Anthony Gardner talks with two leaders within the Lower Sioux Indian Community in Redwood County: Darin Prescott, DNP, MSN, RN, Director of American Indian Health for the Minnesota Department of Health and former clinic CEO of the Lower Sioux Health Care Center, and Larry Swann, Director of the Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI) in the Lower Sioux Indian Community. Through access to culture and community, learn how both leaders are working to counteract racial disparities in health, economic well-being, and more, leading to a healthy community and vibrant economy.
