🍂 Update: A Season of Building 🍂

Today marks the first day of fall! We're marking the change of seasons while celebrating new milestones at the Menaandawiwe Wellness Campus. Steel beams are now rising into place, creating the floors of our future Medical and Dental Center.

Just as fall reflects transformation and preparation, this construction project represents the start of expanded care, healing, and wellness for our community. We can’t wait to welcome you into this new space soon.

Community.
What does it mean to us?

Last night, Fredrick Lone Eagle and the IHB Drum & Dance Group brought the Big Drum to a Multi-Cultural Dinner at the Brian Coyle Community Center.
We lifted each other up, side by side with other cultural groups sharing songs, dance, and traditions.
There was great food, good times, and connection... even when the Minnesota weather moved us indoors!

At IHB, wellness grows through connection, and this is just one of the ways we reach out and give back to the community.

The Indian Health Board was honored to table at this year’s Native American Elder Day, joining community members, partners, and organizations in recognizing and celebrating our Elders.

The day was filled with raffles, games, bingo, delicious food, and laughter! Honoring the wisdom and strength of our Elders, we were proud to share resources and connect with so many familiar community members dedicated to supporting Elder care.

Events like this remind us of the importance of coming together to celebrate those who paved the way for future generations. Aho!

✨ Miigwetch to everyone who joined in and made the day so special. We are grateful to see this annual event recognized by both our community and the state.

Today on FASD Awareness Day, we celebrate strong families and healthy beginnings. FASD is fully preventable, and prevention starts with awareness, support, and healthy choices during pregnancy.

These images remind us what prevention protects: children growing strong, families enjoying time together, and communities building healthy futures. At the same time, we honor families and individuals living with FASD. With the right care and support, they too can thrive.

IHB is here to provide trusted maternal care, culturally informed guidance, and lifelong support for families.

Call 612-721-9800 to connect with a provider.
