A culturally grounded effort to strengthen health understanding, build trust, and connect Lumbee families in Lumberton and surrounding communities with clear, practical resources for prevention, screening, care navigation, and whole-person well-being.
Health literacy is more than reading a brochure. It means having information that is clear, respectful, culturally relevant, and connected to real-life decisions. The Lumbee Health Literacy Initiative supports practical health education, local resource connection, and trusted pathways to care for families in and around Lumberton.
This page centers community strengths, local voices, and practical information. Replace or add additional photos from the Lumbee report, health fair, and powwow once the approved HubSpot image URLs are available.
