We celebrate an historic moment for Alaska Native healthcare and Tribal self-determination.
At Afognak Native Corporation, we are proud to stand alongside Alaska Tribes and the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium in recognizing this important milestone: Alaska Tribes now own the Alaska Native Medical Center (ANMC).
This achievement reflects generations of Tribal advocacy, leadership, and commitment to ensuring Alaska Native people have a strong voice in their healthcare and their future. The transition of ANMC from federal ownership to Tribal ownership is more than symbolic, it strengthens Tribal self-determination and ensures this vital facility remains guided by the People and communities it serves.
We are proud to be a partner in this commitment and celebrate what can be accomplished through Tribal leadership, advocacy, collaboration, and perseverance.
Congratulations to all who helped make this historic moment possible.
