Seattle Indian Health Board is a community health center that serves all people from all ages for their healthcare needs. It was founded in 1970 and is located in the International District. The organization moved to Lake City with the help of Council President Juarez. They have been in Lake City for about three months and have been welcomed by the community. Welcome, everyone, to the Enjoy Lake City podcast. I'm your host, Chris Lieberson. This podcast is brought to you by Build Lake City Together in association with the A Order Artist Productions. The goal of our podcast is to provide information for and about our Lake City community. And today, we are very fortunate to have our guest, Sosha Love Thurman, who is the Chief Health Officer with Seattle Indian Health Board. Welcome. Thank you. Yes, great to have you here. And great to have you all in Lake City. Oh, man, we are so excited to be here, and the Lake City community has been overwhelmingly welcoming. It's really good to hear. We love it up here. Are there any places in Lake City? Now, you are not actually, you don't work in the building here. You're at the headquarters? Correct. Yeah, in the International District. In the International District. Okay. Yeah. But you're up here sometimes. Yeah, I come visit. Sometimes I even, I think I even brought my child for a visit up here. Okay. It's a good way to check out the clinic by also getting my kids' health care needs met too. Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Any businesses or places in Lake City that you like? I feel like I need to explore it more. Yeah. Yeah, please do. There's lots of great things to find. I love that you all have a parking lot at Fred Meyer. That makes for ease of coming to the clinic a little bit easier. Yeah, yeah. For sure. Good.

So Seattle Indian Health Board has been around since 1970. We are a community health center, a federally qualified health center, and also an urban Indian organization, which basically means that we serve all people from all ages for their health care needs.

So the outside mural, which you saw, was actually, it's called Gobs of Color. It was created by Megan McDermott. She was a former SIHB employee. She was a former SIHB employee. She is Chippewa from Montana. She is Chippewa from Montana. She is Chippewa from Montana. She is Chippewa from Montana. She is Chippewa from Montana. She is Chippewa from Montana. She is Chippewa from Montana. She is Chippewa from Montana. She is Chippewa from Montana. She is Chippewa from Montana. She is Chippewa from Montana. She is Chippewa from Montana. She is Chippewa from Montana. She is Chippewa from Montana. It was translated from the Tulalip Tribes website. But that mural was really meant to show that we are intertribal in our urban way, meaning that we see there's just so many of us coming together in this urban area. It really helps kind of appeal to our non-Native patients as well, just about the beauty of Native people and how we are all about just coming together and we each have something to bring. I don't know if you've been inside, but we also did an inside mural that was done by Andrew Morrison, who is Haida and Apache. He actually brought together the youth. There's a North End Native, it's called the Urban Native Education Alliance. They brought together youth to participate in the creation of the mural here with Andrew Morrison. He has been known for a long time to work with youth, so this was just a really awesome opportunity to let our youth set this place off in such a good way. So you have to come inside and check out the inside mural. Yeah, that's great. It adds to, we've really been trying to lean into the mural component for the neighborhood, so it's been a really beautiful addition. Is there anything else that people should know about Seattle Indian Health Board? Anything that you want to share? I think the name can sometimes be misleading for people to think that you need to be Native to go to our clinic, but I think it's just important for people to know that we take all people, about 40 to 50 percent of the patients that we see use state insurance or Medicaid. We take commercial insurance. We take uninsured people, and we can actually see if we can help them get on state insurance. We can offer things like WIC or SNAP, those sorts of things for folks, too. We try to really, as much as we can, be a one-stop shop for folks, so that whether you're dealing with you just want a medication and you want in and out, we can do that. Or if you're really struggling, maybe with housing or domestic violence, we actually have a whole team with case management. We're soon to have social work, and so we want to try to make sure that we can take care of as many needs as possible, even in one visit, because I know it's hard, right? It's hard to sometimes get to appointments where you have to take a day off of work to get there, and so we're continually going to shift to the needs of the people that we serve. So even in coming up here, we saw the need, and we want to continue to meet the needs of this community. So however we can, we'll take feedback and try the best we can to make sure we meet the needs of this community. That's great. I'd like to just offer a little feedback on that, I guess, and that is I am so glad that you guys are up here. I don't have to go to Leschi anymore, and I live right here, so it's amazing. And seeing faces that I already know, and just, you know, I guess I just immediately felt at home. And I think that it's one of those things I've been trying to tell all my friends and people about Seattle Indian Health Board for years, and that they accept anyone, and that you'll get, you know, a lot more open-minded treatment. You know, it's less judgmental or... And less sterile feeling, you know? Exactly. And it's been a little bit tricky, like you said, to get people to step outside of the idea that it just says Indian on it. I know, I know. I know. Don't think we haven't thought about changing the name, because, yeah, we know that that can be really confusing. What type of Indian? You know, like, are you talking, excuse me, dot or feather? It's ridiculous. But, like, we get a lot of people who are just confused by the name, so we really try, yeah, spread the word, letting people know. I definitely do, and I think that this is one of the things that helps that. So, people listening, please understand that this is for everyone, and it's a really inclusive and welcoming environment. Right. And then I would add, too, thank you, that we also see people from all languages. We have a really great video interpretive service now that actually gets somebody right away in video with good sound. Oh, yeah. Including ASL, we've had quite a few people who are deaf or hard of hearing, and so we do want to make sure that people feel comfortable in getting services. So, we do offer translation services. We do also offer sliding scale fees, so even if you aren't able to qualify for insurance, we at least provide sliding scale. So, yeah, we want to see you. We want to see your families. We want to treat your substance use disorder. We have suboxone treatment with all of our clinicians. We are a very inclusive place. We like to say we treat everybody in the native way. Yeah, I love that, and I just want to say that, for sure, if you struggle to pay for your prescriptions, go to Seattle Indian Health Board. Yeah, we have some ways of working out some tricky logistics and make it easier for people. I'm asthmatic, and sometimes it's ridiculous to have to pay for that inhaler, and all I have to do is go in there and say, I'm out. I need a new one, and it's a couple of dollars instead of a lot more. Like I said, there are so many meds that are so expensive that we are at a really unique advantage of being able to get things at a lower cost. Even things like over-the-counters, we have a fair amount of over-the-counters that we provide in our pharmacy free of charge or low cost, and even plant medicines. Those are things that we're hoping to actually expand on is being able to provide that as well for herbs, supplements. If people want to learn more, is there some place that they can go? Yeah, we do have our website. It's www.sihb.org. Our phone number is 206-324-9360. When you call that number, you'll immediately get a person, not a robotic call, and you can ask about things there. Awesome. Well, we are super thrilled that you are all here, and we really appreciate your time today. Yeah, thank you, Xosha. Yeah. Can I just throw in there that I really appreciate you showing up here. I'm really trying to build more of a networking system through Seattle Indian Health Board, Chief Seattle, and get some Native-centric programming happening here. Just to anyone listening, we are looking for Native voices. I want to have a concentrated effort on trying to help spread just storytelling as a source of education and entertainment, but also to save and preserve some of those things that don't get shared enough. So please, by all means, help spread the word for me, and I will definitely continue to be an advocate for your cause, because I appreciate it. I'm glad you guys are here. Thanks for coming. Yeah, we are so happy to be here, and thank you so much to you all and all of Lake City. I mean, I just really cannot say enough how welcoming Lake City has been. I have to second that. This has been the most supportive community I've had in my entire lifetime as an artist. It still blows my mind to even be here. Thank you, Lake City. Thank you, Lake City. All right. Well, you were fantastic. Well, thank you. Thank you.
