Mission and Objective: The addictions recovery program (ARP) consists of two different but equally important parts. The first is the Ormond Lake Cultural Healing camp where the ARP counsellors, Cathy Hobson,Marilyn Janzen, night staff, Dean Sam and Leila Nooski strive “to create a healing environment utilizing a holistic approach that promotes a cultural lifestyle free from addictions and restores a sense of pride in the Carrier Sekani culture”. The camp runs six months out of the year from May to October. Our camps are seven days in length where participants decide our agenda for the week. A very basic agenda at camp consists of smudging, prayer, circle, workshop, and an evening activity which may include preparing traditional foods, collecting traditional medicines, hunting, or going for a walk. Through out the days at camp Margaret Nooski and Charlene Ketlo will be preparing three wonderful meals a day for everyone at camp. Plus Ricky Nooski will be making sure the camp is maintained. When camp is closed Edward Green, Wilfred Sutherland, and Eric Thundstrom ensure that camp is safe and secure. The second part of the ARP program is outreach. From November to April the ARP counselors facilitate a variety of workshops in each of the member communities upon request. The workshops presented are at the request of individual communities. We are also available for crisis intervention throughout the year. ARP counsellors also help to facilitate a sexual abuse intensive in January with Jane Middleton-Moz. This intensive is a five day program that consists of small and large group work focusing on sexual abuse, and what we need to heal. Our clients will expect visitors at the following times: Monday to Friday 7pm – 9pm Saturday (sweat day) 12pm – 9pm Sunday after 11am Current Activities and Updates: Staffing and Contact Details: |
