Many ways to start; chose to develop a strategic plan of what a “community” health program would look like

Value statement

aspects of tribal relationships and tribal
priorities that affect a community. This
includes physical, social, mental and spiritual
health on individual, familial and community
levels, as well as relations between people,
the environment, and the spiritual world.

Vision
Develop a community health program that
supports and enhances current Swinomish health-
related departments, programs and activities,
thereby effectively asserting Swinomish self-
determination about how health is defined,
assessed, improved and maintained.

Overarching themes
We are resilient people. We need to continue to
preserve our way of life.
Salmon health is an indicator of
human/community health, not just tribal
communities but all our communities in the region.
Our community health is related to the health of
our economy and environment.
Efforts need to be more coordinated (both within
tribes, among tribes, and with other
jurisdictions/agencies).
Need to focus on our elders and youth–emphasize inter-generational roles to protect
communities.
