Content Warning: In this episode we dive deep into trauma in Indigenous communities including the atrocities that occurred at residential boarding schools. If you are in crisis or struggling at any level please call or text 988 in the USA:
Your mental health and wellness is a priority. Native American, Indian, Indigenous, and Alaska Native communities are placed at a higher risk due to historical trauma, and compounding discrimination and oppression, in conjunction with a lack of investment into supportive resources. Below, you will find tips and resources to support yourself, a loved one, and other members of Native American, Indian, Indigenous, and Alaska Native communities.
If you need support, you can call, text, or chat with 988. We are available 24/7. 988 works to ensure that all people have access to the support and resources reflective of their own needs. We are always here for you.
Those in Canada can call the Indian Residential School Survivors crisis line 24/7 at 1-800-721-0066
