American Indian, Alaska Native, and Indigenous (AI/AN/In) communities have been greatly undercounted, uncounted, and miscounted/miscategorized in data collection efforts across state, county, and federal agencies — including in the census — presenting stark challenges to accurately highlighting inequities impacting AI/AN/In children.
