The New Mexico Geriatric Education Center (NMGEC) is dedicated to improving the health care of American Indian elders through the education and training of health care providers.

Working in partnership with the Indian Health Service (IHS), the New Mexico Veterans Healthcare System, the National Indian Council on Aging (NICOA), New Mexico Indian Council on Aging, the Laguna Rainbow Corporation, and statewide consortium members, the NMGEC benefits from close interaction with American Indian communities.
