Who We Are


NativeC-Cancer I-Information R-Resource C-Center and L-Learning E-Exchange


The Native CIRCLE. is a resource center providing cancer-related materials to healthcare professionals and lay people involved in the education, care and treatment of American Indians and Alaska Natives.

Culturally appropriate cancer educational materials are essential tools for community outreach. The American Indian/Alaska Native Cancer Information Resource Center and Learning Exchange ("Native CIRCLE"), (R25077410) established in 1999, within the Mayo Clinic Comprehensive Cancer Center provides, stimulates, develops, maintains, and disseminates culturally appropriate cancer information materials for AI/AN educators, providers, and students. Videos and print materials sent to Circle from around Indian country are reviewed by the medical director (JSK) for medical accuracy, modified if necessary, and made available for distribution to health care and community settings. Other collaborators, such as the National Indian Women's Health Resource Center, review materials for appropriateness in different educational settings. "Circle" is the educational arm of the Spirit of Eagles.

The Native CIRCLE DOES NOT PRODUCE their own materials. The materials listed have been gathered from outside agencies, hospitals, clinics, etc., from within the United States and Canada.
