The Haven is partnering with The University of Arizona Southwest Institute for Research on Women to expand its Native Ways programming with the goal of becoming the go-to resource for Native American women in recovery. A $1.1 million grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration will support the New Dawn-Warrior Women project over the next three years. The grant, which began in September 2022, has allowed The Haven to expand the Native Ways Program to an additional 135 clients by funding the hiring of a Program Manager and additional therapists, and boosting its outreach to all of Arizona’s 22 federally recognized tribes.
“We’re beyond thrilled for our partnership with SIROW,” said Aimee Graves, President and CEO of The Haven. “The Haven is committed to addressing our community’s needs through leveraging partners across sectors. We know there’s a need for a substance use treatment program that specifically serves Native American women and creates a space where they can feel whole and respected. It has been wonderful to see how the New Dawn-Warrior Women project has enhanced our clients’ lives during the past year and we’re excited to see what the next two years will bring.”
