SUNRISE Healing Lodge Society has provided Indigenous based programs in the community since 1974. Our abstinence based approach is based on the Twelve Step philosophy of Alcoholics Anonymous (A.A). These Principles being harmonious with Indigenous values and teachings are at the heart of our groups and counselling services. We welcome Indigenous and Non-Indigenous clients who are willing to participate in Indigenous culture and teachings as an integral part of their road to healing and recovery from addictions.
Programming Includes:
• Enriched healing experience with Indigenous teachings and Sharing Circles
• Indigenous Elders meet with clients individually for spiritual teachings
• Educational teachings on resume writing, job skills and social boundaries
• Low barrier Outpatient drop-in program
• Continued recovery through sponsorship in the 12 Step fellowship
• Continued inclusion in Sunrise through the Alumni Group
• Guest presentations
