The Thunderbird‑Wren House, situated in Duluth’s northern residential area, provides residential care for Anishinaabe men and women struggling with substance use. They offer a medium-intensity level of care for those who have already completed a high-intensity program and transitional halfway housing. The center features a culturally grounded approach that honors Anishinaabe traditions, helping clients regain self‑identity and break the cycle of addictive behaviors.

Build Grounded Recovery

Clients participate in daily activities rooted in 12-Step recovery, including meetings and sponsorship. LGBTQ+ individuals receive affirming support through inclusive groups and personalized care plans. The weekly schedule also includes cultural teachings, pipe ceremonies, and meditation, helping individuals stay grounded and connected during treatment. These services are designed to meet each person where they are and help them rebuild their lives with structure and community.

Maintain Long-Term Sobriety

The program offers educational sessions, life skills groups, and relapse prevention planning. Clients may engage in community events and family support sessions. After completing treatment, clients may access continuing care services through Mash-Ka-Wisen to help maintain sobriety and support long-term goals. These services offer guidance and follow-up support as individuals transition into daily life.
