"A Place of Healing"

Do you or someone you care about have a problem with alcohol or another drug? Or, maybe you aren't sure and want to find out. hnpa'aqhn is a holistic outpatient program of tgwe'l hnqhesnet, the Coeur d'Alene Tribe's social service's program. hnpa' aqhn means "a place of healing." That is what is critically needed for people suffering from alcohol/drug problems and for their family members. Together, we can learn to live in balance. Alcohol and drugs are not traditional!
