Welcome to the Inetnon Åmot Natibu/Ammwelil Safeyal Faluwasch (IANASF) (Native Medicine Association) website. We are a non-governmental organization whose specific purposes are to advocate, recognize and support traditional healers; to help protect habitats of medicinal plants through restoration, legislation, educational programs, resolutions, community awareness, conferences, and workshops; to document this cultural tradition in the vernacular languages; and to publish educational materials, posters, and brochures; and also to produce non-print materials such as DVD's, CD's, and TV programming.

This website will contain materials on the Carolinian and Chamorro traditional medicine and healers. We will be providing more information as we continue to work on collecting information on native medicine, medicinal plants, and healers. We will also be conducting a native medicine symposium on Tinian on June 21, and on Saipan on August 9. Go to our Calendar of Events page for more information.
