Abstract

The Native American Lakota population in La Plant, South Dakota face abject poverty, isolation, and substandard healthcare resources. In remote regions where access to healthcare is deficient, non-profit organizations are the conduit to linking remote regions to adequate healthcare. With guidance from healthcare professionals, non-profit organizations can bridge the healthcare gap and become a vital pipeline for healthcare services.
