Tribal Health Care
Honoring Tribal Sovereignty
Coordinated Care is committed to standing in partnership with American Indian and Alaska Native communities. We honor their sovereignty, uplift their voices, and collaborate for health equity, cultural preservation, and vibrant, self-governing futures.
We serve and stand in solidarity with Indigenous communities. We respectfully acknowledge our headquarters in Tacoma, Washington, is located on the traditional lands of the spuyaləpabš (Puyallup Tribe). The Puyallup Tribe is a sovereign nation whose people have lived in deep relationship with this land since time immemorial. Their stewardship, culture, and resilience continue to shape this region. We honor their enduring presence and leadership.
