<h2><span style="font-size:12.0pt">New Resource: “Walk Softly And Listen Carefully, Building Research Relationships With Tribal Communities”<o:p></o:p></span></h2>
</div>
<p>The National Congress of American Indians Policy Research Center and Montana State University’s Center for Native Health Partnerships have published a new resource,
<em>Walk Softly and Listen Carefully: Building Research Relationships with Tribal Communities</em>. A PDF version of the document is available for
<a href="http://cnhp.montana.edu/WalkSoftly.htm" title="Walk Softly and Listen Carefully publication">
downloading</a>. This new resource was developed with insights from those involved with tribal research in Montana and elsewhere.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Increasingly, tribal leaders acknowledge that research is a key tool of tribal sovereignty in providing data and information to guide community planning, cross-community coordination, and program and policy development. Efforts to address longstanding issues,
 such as health disparities for American Indians and Alaska Natives (AI/AN), have increasingly used partnership research approaches. This document seeks to strengthen these partnerships by providing insight about how culture, sovereignty, and experience matter
 in research with Native communities.<o:p></o:p></p>
