Abstract
Pascua Yaqui Tribe of Arizona, Guadalupe-Community Oriented Recovery Effort (G-Core), Guadalupe, AZ: G-Core will use an assets-based, culturally appropriate community organizing approach in an effort to promote renewed hope for recovery and to fight the stigma associated with both substance abuse and recovery-seeking among Native Americans in the local area. The project will build a community coalition with the Pascua Yaqui Tribe and other local organizations to support individuals in or seeking recovery. The coalition will also work to change community and cultural attitudes, thereby reducing the shame and stigma associated with recovery-seeking. G-Core is expected to serve as a national model for organizing indigenous, ethnic, and racial minority communities around the concept of sobriety normalization. |
