White Buffalo Recovery Services
A part of the Wind River Family and Community Healthcare Network – Northern Arapaho Tribe
White Buffalo Recovery follows a circular approach to a continuum of care, seeing how all aspects are connected and continuous. A continuum of care is a comprehensive approach to behavioral health also means seeing promotion, prevention, treatment and recovery as parts of an overall continuum of care. All aspects are equally important and necessary for our community. T’he Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s Behavioral Health Continuum of Care Model recognizes multiple opportunitites for addressing behavioral health problems and disorders. The model includes the following components:
Promotion – These strategies are designed to create environments and conditions that support behavioral health and the ability of individuals to withstand challenges. Promotion strategies also reinforce the entire continuum of behavioral health services.
Prevention – Delivered prior to the onset of a disorder, these interventions are intended to prevent or reduce the risk of developing a behavioral health problem, such as underage alcohol use, prescription drug misuse and abuse, and illicit drug use.
Treatment – These services are for people diagonosed with a substance use or other behavioral health disorder.
Recovery – These services support individuals’ abilities to live productive lives in the community and can often help with abstinence. (SAMHSA, 2016).
Promotion – Radio, Media, Speaker meetings. Follow us on Facebook.
Prevention – Culturally based prevention services including but not limited to: Project Venture, Purpose of Life, Mending Broken Hearts, Traditiona Plant Teaching and Gathering, Archery, Youth Wilderness Camp, Cultural Knowledge, Outdoor Leadership, Mentorship, United National Indian Tribal Youth (UNITY) participation.
Treatment – American Society of Addiction of Medicine (ASAM) Level 5 Education; Level 1 Outpatient; Level 2.1 Intensive Outpatient; Level 3.1 Transitional Housing on site by Licensed and Certified Providers. Level 0.5 ADULT class is $120.00, must be paid in full before class date (outside clients $175.00). Level 1 & 2.1 services provided to Federally Enrolled tribal members or descendants. All treatment services must have an assessment (by a licensed or certified provider/organization) in the last 6 months to receive, and medical clearance individuals start at a level of care and step down as they complete services if individuals are in need of a higher level of care the program will refer to outside facilities.
Recovery – Advocacy, support, education, mentoring and motivation from peers who have a shared experience with living with an addiction and whom have obtained long term recovery.
