Community Wellness

NAHC’s Community Wellness Department (CWD) provides inclusive mental health, preventative care, and social services with a focus on advocacy, culture, education, and relationship building. Our holistic model of care guides CWD in treating the entire individual through various programs, services, and resources. Using harm reduction techniques with a trauma-informed approach, our staff creates a safe space to meet members where they’re at. We aim to provide the best possible care to support with reclaiming identity, restoring balance, and building physical, emotional, and spiritual health for everyone who walks through our doors.

Wellness Circle

NAHC’s Community Wellness Department commits to holding cultural practices and behaviors that respect all voices and diverse perspectives and experiences. We are passionate about embracing the rich identity and traditions of all people who receive services and work in our organization.

Our Programs and Services

The Community Wellness Department’s Elder program was developed to meet the needs of our elders and ensure they receive the proper care to remain safe while staying connected with the community. Through cultural events, care coordination, and wellness plans, elders have a place where they can thrive.
