Alaska Native Community Resilience Study and the Alaska Native Collaborative Hub for Research on Resilience (ANCRS/ANCHRR)
The Alaska Native Community Resilience Study (ANCRS) builds on long-standing partnerships with Alaska Native communities to understand and strengthen culturally grounded protections that support youth wellness. Rooted in a strengths-based approach, ANCRS asks: What makes Alaska Native communities strong, and how are those strengths being used to promote resilience and reduce suicide risk among youth?
Working with 64 communities across the Yukon-Kuskokwim, Northwest Arctic, and Bering Strait regions, ANCRS examines how community-level protective factors shape youth resilience and influence suicide risk, offering insight into what supports thriving across Alaska Native homelands.
