Brief Description of Services Provided:

Sunrise Native Addictions Services is an addiction treatment centre that has provided Aboriginal based programs in the community since 1974. We help men, women and their families recover from the destructive effects of alcohol, drug and gambling addictions.

 Our abstinence based approach to healing is founded on the twelve steps and philosophy of Alcoholics Anonymous. These principles – being harmonious with Aboriginal values and teachings are at the heart of our groups and counselling services.

We welcome Aboriginal and Non-Aboriginal clients who are willing to participate in Aboriginal culture and teachings as an integral part of their road to healing and recovery from addictions.
