Messengers for Health Improving the health and wellness of the Apsáalooke community through culture, language and stories. Entails having a positive approach to life.

Our program is based on Crow cultural strengths:

Babaxuaitchik, the belief that every day is a good day and that life is more valuable than anything else. Báa nnilah, advice that we all receive from others, is often shared through story and gives us instructions for life. Itchik diiawakaam, and itchik de baanaum mean it is good to see you and good to talk with you. When individuals see each other, it is never with a quick hi and goodbye. This reflects the importance of spending quality time with others, of real listening and exchange, and understanding that others are special and what they share is important. Daasachchuchik is having a strong heart. It gives us the desire and willingness to persevere in a positive way despite obstacles. Some use the word resilience to describe this. Spirituality is the foundation and guide of the Crow Indian culture. It is incorporated in every aspect of the Crow way of life.
