Mission & Focus Areas

NSHC’s mission is “providing quality health services and promoting wellness within our people and environment.” Its website describes core values that include cultural sensitivity and respect for traditional values, compassion, teamwork, integrity, and continuous learning.

The organization’s reported services include acute and long-term care, village health clinics, preventive health programs, behavioral health services, and support for women, infants, and children. Its 2023–2024 Community Health Needs Assessment identifies priorities including chronic disease, mental health, maternal and child health, dementia care, and preventive services.

NSHC’s 2025 grants went to Alaska-based community, tribal, village, and school district recipients. One recipient, Nome Community Center, describes its own objectives as providing health, educational, and social services to residents of the Bering Strait region.

NSHC also offers scholarships and internships for people pursuing higher education, with priority for Bering Strait region tribal members, students who commit to returning to the region and possible NSHC employment, and students pursuing medical fields. Its National Native Youth Initiative is a learning opportunity for Alaska Native high school students ages 16–18 interested in health careers; the program covers airfare, lodging, and most meals for participation. These offerings are for students and program participants, rather than grants to outside organizations.

Grantmaking

In filing year 2025, NSHC reported 16 grants totaling $390,000. Grants ranged from $10,000 to $65,000, with a median of $22,500.
