peer support services
Native mentorship Circle
traditional music workshops
As a certified peer support provider in the State of Arizona NMC is privileged to walk with you on your journey to wellness. Many tribal youths suffer from addictions and or mental health challenges. NMC is proud to be a mentor to tribal youth. The barriers that native youth face are stigmas and having limited resources available in rural areas. This makes it difficult for tribal youth to have consistent mentorship. NMC is committed to providing culturally sensitive services. Many blessings to all.
