Health Behaviors among American Indian/Alaska Native Women, 1998–2000 BRFSS

Abstract

These data highlight both disparities in health risk behaviors between AI/AN women and all U.S. women and improvements needed for AI/AN women to meet Healthy People 2010 goals. This project demonstrates the overwhelming need for culturally appropriate and accessible prevention programs to address health risk behaviors associated with the leading causes of death among urbanized AI/AN women.
