Tobacco is sacred for many American Indians. It is an inherent gift from the Creator. Tobacco is part of our everyday life when we wake up to a new day, an offering to an elder, a prayer, a request, and gratitude for all that surrounds us.
We acknowledge and honor that traditional tobacco is a gift from Creator and many communities use it in a traditional way. We would love to hear your stories about traditional tobacco.
We imagine a world without cancer.
Working to eliminate the cancer burdens of American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) people through improved access to prevention, early detection, treatment, and survivor support.
