You have the power to be part of something life-changing. Help turn suffering, trauma, and pain into something better, something meaningful, and something lasting. Partner with us today in creating a safe place for Klamath County youth and families. Right now, youth and families in our community need a safe place to gather, connect, and feel supported. Too many are carrying pain, isolation, and disconnection on their own. Too often, they are left to face it alone. We are opening that safe gathering space—a place for positive programs, connection, and community support, where youth and families can come as they are and begin to rebuild connection, belonging, and hope. We are $4,900 away from opening this space for summer programs. That funding completes land preparation, privacy fencing, and site readiness so this space can open safely and summer programs can begin. This space is already being built through donated labor, time, and community support. Now we need partners to help finish what has already begun. Be a partner in creating a place where no young person feels forgotten and no family has to carry everything alone. Sponsorship Levels: Bronze $1–$249 | Silver $250–$499 | Gold $500–$2,499 | Platinum $2,500+ Sponsors receive a charitable donation receipt, are recognized on-site and on our website, and by sponsoring this project, become a community partner in opening a safe place for youth and families. If you or your organization can donate any amount today, you will become a partner in creating something better for our community. Every contribution helps open this space. https://gofund.me/b42abe330 With gratitude and hope, Traditional Ways Team 🙏🏼

Community Health & Wellness
Traditional Ways Healing Collective (TWHC) is a Tribal nonprofit rooted in traditional healing wisdom and holistic wellness practices that support balance across mind, body, spirit, and energy. We advance community wellness through culturally grounded approaches that strengthen mental health, substance use recovery, and overall well-being.
We are a grassroots, community-based collective of recovery and mental health specialists, traditional healers, cultural teachers, and community allies—including legal professionals, educators, and local leaders—working together to support healing and resilience across our communities, while partnering with local organizations and employers to strengthen prevention, workforce stability, and community well-being. Grounded in Native best practices—relational accountability, holistic balance, cultural continuity, reciprocity, and community-centered healing—we expand access to culturally responsive care and advance health equity across Klamath County and surrounding areas.
We bridge traditional healing with modern approaches to provide integrative, accessible care that addresses social determinants of health and reduces barriers related to poverty, rural isolation, and limited access to services, ensuring inclusive healing spaces for both tribal and non-tribal community members. Anah’wah Healing Center is home to our land-based Recovery Community Center (RCC) in Klamath Falls, fostering connection, belonging, and sustained recovery through community.
Across our programs and partnerships, we address mental health challenges, Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), toxic stress, substance use, anxiety, depression, and trauma-related impacts—supporting whole-person healing and strengthening community well-being while offering culturally grounded practices such as talking circles, sound healing, drum circles, and ceremonial healing activities. The Community Healing Purification Sweat Lodge Program is currently in development in response to community needs.

Our Community Initiatives
Traditional Ways Healing Collective is building the Anah’wah Healing Center as a land-based community healing space and Recovery Community Center in Klamath Falls, grounded in traditional practices, intergenerational connection, and collective care.
Development will begin with the Community Healing Purification Sweat Lodge Program, creating a holistic, culturally rooted foundation for healing and restoration. From there, we will build the Anah’wah Community Meeting Room—a safe, welcoming space where youth, families, and justice-involved individuals can build life skills, strengthen resilience, and support mental health, substance use prevention, recovery, and community connection.
This peer-driven center will provide support through shared experience and multiple pathways to recovery, including peer support, recovery coaching, skill-building, workforce readiness, education and employment support, recovery meetings, and substance-free community activities. Services also include housing support, system navigation, family support, and community referrals.
Services are currently active through community partnerships as we expand toward a dedicated space. Land and leadership are secured; community and partner support are needed to bring this vision to life. Donors are recognized on a sign at the Healing Center and on our website, with anonymity available.
Anah’wah reflects Indigenous principles of renewal and rebirth, as well as fluidity, honoring healing as a natural process of balance and connection. At Anah’wah Healing Center, healing is recognized as relational and ongoing, rooted in presence, respect, and harmony with self, community, and the natural world.
Youth Leadership & Prevention Pathway
As part of the Anah’wah Healing Center, Traditional Ways Healing Collective provides youth leadership and prevention programming that supports resilience, life skills, and healthy development.
Youth who complete programming through Traditional Ways Healing Collective have the opportunity to continue into a structured next phase of leadership development, peer connection, and ongoing support through the Sacred Sol Youth Leadership & Prevention Club.
Through this partnership, youth have ongoing opportunities for leadership development, prevention, mentorship, and community connection—supporting their growth, strengthening confidence, and encouraging a sense of purpose within themselves and their community.
Anah’wah Healing Center
Anah’wah Healing Center is a land-based community healing space stewarded by Traditional Ways Healing Collective. The center is envisioned as a shared gathering and collective space for practitioners, partners, and community-led wellness activities focused on intergenerational healing, connection, and balance across mind, body, spirit, and energy. This space will support holistic culturally rooted wellness efforts, prevention, and recovery programming for individuals and families, while also serving as a collaborative space for community practitioners and partner organizations. Land and leadership are secured; funding is the primary barrier to building and bringing this healing space to life. Community support is essential to help develop a safe, welcoming environment where healing, learning, and connection can take place.
Community Healing Purification Sweat Lodge Program
The Community Healing Purification Sweat Lodge Program is a holistic culturally grounded, land-based healing initiative that supports spiritual, emotional, and community wellness through traditional practices offered in a safe, respectful, and inclusive setting. The program is intended to serve individuals, families, and the broader community as resources allow, with many offerings: • Monthly public purification ceremonies open to community members • Private purification opportunities for mental health and recovery agencies • Intergenerational participation for youth, adults, and elders Land and leadership are in place—funding remains the primary barrier. Support is needed for privacy fencing, sweat lodge materials, and partial labor to ensure safety, privacy, and accessibility.
