Unless the government reopens, the Seattle Indian Health Board will have to cut services starting this week, according to the organization.

A quarter of the Seattle Indian Health Board’s budget is funded by the federal government, but since the shutdown began nearly a month ago, it hasn’t received any of its usual weekly payments.

After this weekend, the organization’s Saturday drop-in clinic will shutter. The Health Board will also cut the number of substance abuse treatment beds at its Thunderbird Treatment Center in half, according to Seattle Indian Health Board chief research officer Abigail Echo-Hawk.

Some programs, like the Seattle Indian Health Board’s traditional Indian medicine program and another program that provides meals, health care and a safe space to about 90 mostly homeless elders, fully rely on government funding.

As a result, Echo-Hawk said the Health Board will have to reduce those programs starting this week.

Echo-Hawk pointed out that while the VA, Medicaid and Medicare continue to receive funding, Native-specific health care funding has stalled.
