To inform the feasibility of the intervention and to gain perspective, three focus groups were conducted among urban AI/AN adults receiving mental health treatment (n = 7), providers who serve urban AI/AN people (n = 7), and the GHUTS Community Advisory Board (n = 5). Three overarching conceptual themes emerged: 1) Diabetes is an important issue among urban AI/AN people receiving mental health treatment, 2) AI/AN traditional practices have an important role in diabetes prevention among urban AI/AN adults receiving mental health treatment, and 3) Gardening is beneficial for AI/AN people. Feedback on the GHUTS curriculum featured diabetes education, cultural elements, concerns specific to AI/AN people in Los Angeles County, cooking, physical exercise and diet, prayer and mindfulness, community sharing, and field trips.

To attain these goals in a particular state in the United States has been very difficult, and Alaska, which has only been a state since 1959, is not close to attaining these goals. As a matter of fact, this paper will demonstrate that Alaska has had more trouble than most states in providing even rudimentary services in several of these areas.
