The Central Oklahoma American Indian Health Council, Inc. has received funding from the Indian Health Service for the development of Urban Indian Health Programs. After two years of development, they are now looking to provide limited health service programs such as pre-school and child screening. They aim to gather information to assist in further program planning and development. The organization has collected some data on the urban Indian population but lacks comprehensive health level data compared to other ethnic groups or rural Indian populations. Obtaining meaningful health level data is crucial for developing comprehensive health programs. The project director is Hickory Starr, Jr. and the applicant organization is Central Oklahoma American Indian Health Council, Inc.
