Native American Reentry Services [15]

  • Our mission is to address barriers faced by Native people who find themselves struggling to transition from a life of incarceration to one of healthy and productive freedom.

White Bison [18]

  • We are a Native American operated 501(c)3 nonprofit company dedicated to creating and sustaining a grassroots Wellbriety Movement that provides culturally based healing to the next seven generations of Indigenous People. White Bison is a proud facilitator of the Wellbriety Movement. Wellbriety means to be sober and well. Wellbriety teaches that we must find sobriety from addictions to alcohol and other drugs and recover from the harmful effects of drugs and alcohol on individuals, families and whole communities. The "Well" part of Wellbriety is the inspiration to go on beyond sobriety and recovery, committing to a life of wellness and healing everyday.


The Native Project: Sacred Hospitality for All [19]

  • Our Mission is to provide quality services that promote wellness and balance of mind, body and spirit for individuals, staff, families and communities.

The NATIVE Project’s Service Delivery Philosophy is a patient centered care model that embraces action, education, culture and spirituality on the road to healing and wellness.

Chief Seattle Club [24]

  • Located in the city's historic Pioneer Square district, the Chief Seattle Club provides a safe and sacred place to rest, revive and nurture the spirit of urban Native peoples in need. We believe in the power of our ancestral ways, and preserving them means fostering a sense of community among those without one to call their own. Anyone with American Indian or Alaska Native heritage, regardless of tribe, is invited to participate in our programs and make use of our resources. Our mission is to create a welcoming place of support, acceptance and ceremony for Seattle's native population. We hope that you will become a Club member, and join us in that mission. Aho!
