In early October, members of the GLIIHC team attended the Substance Abuse and Suicide Prevention/Domestic Violence Prevention National Grantee Meeting at Indian Health Service (IHS) headquarters in Rockville, MD. The gathering brings together grant recipients from across the country to connect, share experiences, and learn from one another.
Our team was invited to present on GLIIHC's Advocacy Driven Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) program, highlighting the work we are doing to expand access to specialized, compassionate care for survivors of sexual assault.
GLIIHC is the only urban Indian health center providing SANE services, making this program an important resource for our community. SANE services provide specialized, trauma-informed care for individuals who have experienced sexual assault, including medical examination, evidence collection when appropriate, and support in navigating next steps.
It was an honor to share our work with colleagues from across the country, exchange knowledge, and highlight the importance of culturally responsive care for Native survivors.
We are proud of our team and the work they do to ensure our community has access to compassionate, specialized care when it matters most.
