Hello! Camai! Wáa sá iyatée!

About iknowmine.org

The Alaska Tribal Health Consortium (ANTHC) HIV/STD Prevention Program established iknowmine.org to provide Alaska Native and rural Alaska youth holistic health education and additional resources to promote healthy lifestyle choices.

The website distributes educational materials and resources, condoms, harm reduction kits, HIV self-testing kits, naloxone kits and safe medication disposal supplies and offers the I Want the Kit STI self-testing through a partnership with Johns Hopkins University.

The goal of the ANTHC HIV/STD Prevention Program is to create and disseminate materials, programs and other resources and to provide capacity and technical assistance to promote health and wellness. In our work, we recognize the intersection of the root causes of many health disparities, such historical and intergenerational trauma.

We also believe community involvement is integral to achieving wellness. ANTHC HIV/STD Prevention Program has many long-standing partnerships and continuously looks to connect with new partners aligned with our goals and values to better serve Alaska Native youth and those who support them.
