About Thunderbird – Wren House

Thunderbird Wren House is a culturally rooted substance use treatment program in Duluth, Minnesota.

Their comprehensive approach impresses me. The program serves Anishinaabe men and women through abstinence based care that blends evidence based practices with Native cultural programming.

Anishinaabe Centered Recovery Programs

I like their step down environment for clients who have completed a high intensity treatment program.

Care includes medium intensity residential treatment, halfway house and sober living support, cooccurring mental health services and structured aftercare planning to help clients transition into long term sobriety.

Clients can expect individual counseling, cooccurring groups, brief CBT, MI and contingency management.

Programming also integrates cultural services such as talking circles, sweat lodges, pipe and drum ceremonies, Ojibwe language activities, life skills development and educational and vocational counseling.
