Jackie Schaeffer is a community development manager with the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium. She also serves as a board director of the NANA Regional Corporation.
So she has been deeply involved in responding to the Covid-19 pandemic in rural, Alaska Native communities.
ATMI producer Roey McCowan talked with Schaeffer about her work during the pandemic, how storytelling has helped Native people through decision making regarding the COVID-19 vaccines, and how Covid has impacted efforts to combat climate change.
They spoke on March 23rd, 2022.
Hosted by Zinn Rogers.
