It will offer holistic land base healing and cultural ceremonies. There will be a six-week inpatient residential program with 10 beds for men and 10 beds for women. There will be a 24/7 onsite primary care medical support, 24/7 access to qualified front line staff and an integrated case management team, and 24/7 Elder-in-residence.
