WE R NATIVE
In August 2011, the Northwest Portland Area Indian Health Board created a health text messaging service for Native teens and young adults called WE R NATIVE. The service is designed to address health and social issues that are important to Native youth.
By texting the word NATIVE to 97779, users can sign-up to receive weekly health tips, contests, and life advice. Standard message and data rates may apply (just like texting your friends).
