National Native HIV Network
HIV Resources For Tribal Communities
The National Native HIV Network (NNHN) was created in 2017 as a community-led response to increase and organize a national voice and presence in the HIV movement from the American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian communities.
Building a Healthier Future Through Collaboration
With support from the Indian Health Service (IHS) and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Minority HIV/AIDS Fund (MHAF), the Albuquerque Area Indian Health Board (AAIHB) coordinates a wide array of key stakeholders from the twelve IHS Areas, including Hawaii, to form the National Native HIV Network. The Network provides input and guidance to assist IHS and other agencies in efforts to reach high-risk American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian populations with HIV testing, prevention, and treatment. NNHN builds group capacity and provides assistance to support extensive community engagement strategies, dissemination of information at regional and national levels, and supports professional and leadership development to sustain these efforts.
