Purpose
The All of Us Research Program is committed to ensuring that the program reflects the diversity of the United States and includes individuals who have typically been underrepresented in biomedical research. The Tribal Collaboration Working Group, a working group of the All of Us Research Program Advisory Panel, will provide information for consideration regarding the inclusion of American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) populations in the program.
Deliverables
The Tribal Collaboration Working Group will identify strategies for developing meaningful, culturally sensitive collaborations with AI/AN populations. It will offer input to the All of Us Research Program Advisory Panel, describing collaboration opportunities and potential challenges.
