Attention: The Keweenaw Bay Indian Community is in the process of conducting a personalized survey called the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) as part of the 2017 Native American BRFS Project. In the past, Native Americans, have been underrepresented in such surveys; this survey will give the Keweenaw Bay Indian Community a more accurate and fair representation.
