Grant Overview

The Wyoming Department of Health reports that Native American communities experience diabetes prevalence rates 2.5 times higher than the state average, while substance abuse treatment admissions are 1.8 times higher. Unlike neighboring states, Wyoming's frontier county designation and rural geography require research projects to be tailored to the state's unique context.
