This program is designed to provide culturally sensitive and responsive services to Native American offenders with an aim to the reduction of recidivism and incarceration. The program will rely upon evidence-based practices (MI, T4C, OWDS, & Interactive Journaling). This program will build upon Native American cultural influences and will include a sensitivity to issues of Historic Generational Trauma.  This program will provide ATI services at an earlier stage than other ATI programs in operation in this area, and will also include interventions when a sentenced offender is in danger of incarceration due to behaviors that could constitute a violation of probation, and will utilize probation staff working as a team with contracted Native American staff.
