ADDICTION & RECOVERY SERVICES: Youth

Services

Our prevention and youth development program Unsah Jan is aimed at young people ages 10 – 24 and focuses on suicide and substance-abuse prevention, and life-skills and wellness development for all young people. Services are designed to meet the needs of Alaska Native, American Indian, and LGBTQ+ youth specifically.

Recovery Services provides substance use assessments for those 12 years or older. This service aims to address concerns with drug and/or alcohol use/misuse and the potential need for further treatment.

The Alaska Native Justice Center (ANJC) assists youth who are or have been involved in the juvenile justice system by supporting their transition into adulthood by developing self-awareness and modeling healthy relationships. Youth advocates work with adolescents in need of educational, workforce development, employment, social-emotional awareness, and cultural support.

ELIGIBILITY

Our Recovery Services department provides quality, culturally appropriate services to not only Alaska Native people residing in Anchorage, but to all individuals of all backgrounds, open from all areas of the state.
