Indigenous violence survivors see fewer services after federal cuts

The recent reduction in federal funding has left Indigenous communities struggling to provide necessary services for survivors of violence, with over 1,000 unmet requests for help. The Urban Indian Health Institute's report reveals that these cuts are straining the ability of organizations serving American Indian and Alaska Native populations to offer vital support. This situation underscores the dire need for increased funding to address the long-standing issues these communities face, highlighting a critical gap in support that could have far-reaching implications for their health and well-being.
