Native American Community Clinic (NACC): Addressing the Health Disparities within the Urban Native American Community of the Twin Cities
NACC’s mission is to promote the health & wellness of mind, body, and spirit of Native American families. They offer a full range of healthcare services that include Medical, Behavioral Health, Dental, and Substance Abuse programs. NACC approaches healthcare by addressing root causes of health disparities including access to food, housing and health insurance with services such as resource navigation, care coordination, outreach and community-based activities through the use of our peer recovery coaches and community health workers. NACC strives to honor health and tradition by providing spiritual care and access to traditional healing through our Elders in Residence.
