Let’s Talk Recovery Equity | Historical Trauma in Native Communities

This episode centers around health and recovery equity within Native communities, the roles of historical and generational trauma, the rates of addiction, and the good work that’s being done to provide more hope and healing. — Host Andrew Williams speaks with his colleagues Cecelia Jayme, Director of Clinical Services, and Sarita McGowan, PhD. As two proud Native women in long-term recovery, Jayme and McGowan, PhD, share their personal and professional insights into addiction within Indigenous communities. And they discuss how it’s being addressed, and how allies and community members can partner to create change—honoring the long history of trauma and the very real impact on their community. Jayme and McGowan, PhD, also find space to celebrate their cultural traditions and include others. They contemplate the harsh realities for tribes across the United States and Canada. And they declare proudly, “We are still here,” as they reflect on the profound resilience of their people.
