Mingus Mountain Youth Treatment Center Staff recently had the honor of connecting with Timothy Nelson and Laura Tso with the Navajo Nation. They provided our staff with training designed to help develop cultural awareness and sensitivity when working with Native American adolescents.

Special attention was given to understanding the values, traditions, and experiences of Navajo youth, followed by an exploration of other federally recognized tribal nations within Arizona.

We were so grateful to learn in this dynamic session which incorporated practical strategies, real-life scenarios, and reflections from both Indigenous and non-Indigenous staff perspectives to foster respectful and inclusive care practices.

Special Gratitude goes out to both Timothy Nelson and Laura Tso as well as the Navajo Nation for their time and thoughtful presentation.

Mingus Mountain Academy

Mingus Mountain Academy is a Joint Commission (JCAHO) accredited residential treatment center for emotionally and behaviorally at-risk adolescent girls. Founded in 1985, the Academy is located on a 120-acre campus surrounded by National Forest, 25 minutes from the town of Prescott Valley, Arizona. Our ability to motivate the girls toward a positive, healthy future is a major factor in our success. To this end, our program combines a positive peer culture, caring staff, careful medical treatment, individualized psychotherapy and education, and numerous activities including our unique equestrian program. The peer culture uses the power of positive peer influence to address behavioral problems. Because many of the students who come to us have experienced significant trauma, our treatment team is specially trained to address these issues within our safe, structured, and nurturing environment. An emphasis on family therapy fosters successful reunification with families. Two therapeutic group homes give students the opportunity to re-enter society, living in nearby communities and getting part-time jobs if they wish, while continuing their treatment and education on campus.
