The cycle of masking pain through addiction resulting times of desparation inwhich one will seek out any type of sybstance to induce intoxication. While providing outreach services history is discussed and how it has impacted today’s youth. This is when I would almost promote that “we” as native people must come to terms with history thus allowing us to heal and move forward. There is no set event as of yet as it may not be until closer to tentive dates. I can provide an estimate at this time based on history.
