Wellbriety

Wellbriety is a “journey of hope and healing for Indigenous peoples seeking recovery from addictions”. The Red Road to Wellbriety came to be as a collaborate effort of many people who provided their recovery stories, their energy, prayers and encouragement to help Indigenous people enter and maintain their Red Road journey and life in Wellbriety. It is designed to help us gain power over ourselves, and to learn to ask the Creator for help in this journey.
