Cover Story: Although Indigenous Peoples represent a smaller percentage of the population, they tend to experience systematic barriers to equitable care and disproportionately worse health outcomes. To explore Indigenous cancer care supports in Saskatchewan, Canada, an advisory committee with Indigenous patient partners guided a needs assessment study to recommend evidence-based interventions. By conducting key informant interviews and a sharing circle with patients, survivors, and family members, we identified barriers to care and inherent strengths of communities, including kinship, connection to culture, and spirituality. This study provides recommendations that can enhance patient and family experiences and address Indigenous health equity.
