Inclusive Indigenous Wellness Approach for Addiction Treatment

At the heart of this facility’s mission is its Inclusive Indigenous Wellness Approach, a compassionate and culturally grounded model of care. Guided by ceremony leaders, cultural practitioners, and Indigenous community groups, this framework ensures that clients are met with respect, understanding, and support rooted in Indigenous traditions. The facility’s staff and partners have undergone comprehensive cultural respect and humility training, emphasizing authenticity and sensitivity in every interaction.

This approach provides clients with enriching opportunities to connect with their heritage and community. Clients can participate in local ceremonies, engage in community workshops, and access case management services that link them to Native-specific resources, such as housing, employment programs, and health services. These offerings are designed to foster a sense of belonging and empowerment, addressing the holistic dimensions of well-being—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health—essential for recovery and growth.

Through its partnership with the Rooted & Restored Collaborative, this initiative demonstrates a profound commitment to honoring Indigenous wisdom and creating an inclusive space for all clients. By weaving cultural practices into the recovery journey, this approach not only supports clients in achieving long-term success but also helps them thrive in harmony with their identity and community.

This model is a testament to the facility’s dedication to cultivating a space where healing and tradition intersect, offering a meaningful pathway to sobriety and wellness that respects the richness of Indigenous culture.
