9. As Anishnaabek we have endured a remarkable journey over time carrying the seeds of healing deep in our hearts. The grief and trauma resulting from boarding schools, rapid cultural change, lack of economic opportunity, and loss of land have contributed to the high rates of substance abuse and mental health problems experienced by the Anishnaabek families and communities today. The Recovery Movement

10. Tribal Initiatives The seeds of healing have grown into a strong recovery movement with committed people. Tribal governments have created behavioral health departments along with policies and procedures to guide the delivery of services including indigenous healing services that are integrated with western approaches.

11. 11 The Anishnaabek Healing Circle ATR has been able to effectively access funding to support this tribal vision for healing.

12. 12 Jingle dress dancers, dance for healing. Anishnaabek people of Michigan. (Odawa, Potawatomi, and Ojibwa) Working with multiple tribes has challenges. There are multiple ways to collaborate. A shared vision is key to success.

14. “To advocate for and facilitate the development of indigenous methods for the prevention and treatment of substance abuse and mental health problems based on Anishnaabek values of Love, Respect, Honesty, Bravery, Humility, Truthfulness, and Wisdom; and to evaluate these methods based on indigenous indicators.” Behavioral Health Communication Network Mission Statement:

16. Tribal Recovery Oriented Systems of Care Shifting the model of intervention from acute care of individuals to a sustained recovery management approach relies on partnerships with individuals, families and communities. White & Sanders (2004). ATR II started the “process” of integrating services into a ROSC. ATR III continues that process by identifying key elements to integration.

20. The Tribal Umbrella Every tribe has programs: every program and department is part of the circle of recovery for an individual. Whatever (and whoever) the individual needs to support their recovery is whatever (and whoever) should be integrated into the circle of recovery. Build on what already exists.

23. Outcomes: 23 Trained Recovery Coaches within each tribal community, who are from each tribal community, who can provide ATR billable recovery management services to the target population. A Recovery Oriented System of Care that includes programs, people and resources, with the consumer at the center of the circle.

24. Recovery Coach Institute The first Anishnaabek Healing Circle Recovery Coach Institute was held June 4-8, 2012 to train local recovery coaches, recovery coach supervisors and ATR liaisons.
