“Se>Eye>Chen Youth Home is a safe and
therapeutic environment for Native American Youth. Wellness and
healing are fostered by addressing the emotional, physical, mental,
spiritual and cultural needs of each individual”.
Many Native youth from
Lummi and the surrounding Costal Salish areas have benefited from
the services that have been delivered at the Se>Eye>Chen Youth
House. The staff has continued to make progress through their
training and experience in finding creative ways to meet the complex
needs of our clients and their referrals. We continue to get youth
from the courts, probation, ICW workers, Therapeutic Foster Homes,
DSHS/CPS, & other Mental Health and Chemical Dependency Agencies, as
well as from Tribal Social & Family service agencies. We have become
a resource to many agencies and workers throughout the State.
Se>Eye>Chen has become a
very “safe place” and “Nurturing Environment” for Native Youth. The
mostly Native staff continues to deliver Culturally directed
services, including drum making, weaving, leather work, beading,
Native Art work, & other teachings.
