Abstract:
This article details different ways community organizations often see how the environment impacts the health of their families and neighbors, especially the Native community. In understanding that decisions made upstream impact communities downstream, partnerships become key to lessening or improving the negative health impacts of our natural and built environments. Which is why these partnerships are highlighted within the article along with the decision-making processes to achieve healthier environments for all.
