The National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention funds the agency's largest investment in Indian Country, Good Health and Wellness in Indian Country. This 5-year program, launched in 2014, supports American Indian and Alaska Native communities and tribal organizations to address chronic diseases and risk factors simultaneously and in coordination. This article describes the development, funding, and implementation of the program. Dialogue with tribal members and leaders helped shape the program, and unlike previous programs that funded a small number of tribes to work on specific diseases, this program funds multiple tribal entities to reach widely into Indian Country. Implementation included culturally developed and adapted practices and opportunities for peer sharing and problem solving. This program identified approaches useful for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, other federal agencies, or other organizations working with American Indians and Alaska Natives.
美国疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）国家慢性病预防与健康促进中心（NCCDPHP）为该机构在印第安人领地开展的最大规模投资项目“印第安人领地的良好健康与健康促进”提供资金支持。该项目于 2014 年启动，旨在支持美国印第安人和阿拉斯加原住民社区及部落组织同时协调地应对慢性病和风险因素。本文描述了该项目的发展、资金支持和实施情况。与部落成员和领导人的对话有助于项目的开展，与以往仅资助少数几个部落来解决特定疾病的项目不同，该项目为多个部落实体提供资金支持，以广泛覆盖印第安人领地。实施工作包括开发和采用具有文化特色的做法，并为同行提供分享和解决问题的机会。该项目确定了一些对美国疾病控制与预防中心、其他联邦机构或与美国印第安人和阿拉斯加原住民合作的其他组织有用的方法。
