A developing Turquoise Tiospaye resource connecting Native communities, service providers, educators, and organizations with meaningful news, trauma-informed practices, Indigenous healing knowledge, research, training, and funding opportunities.
This first version demonstrates how information will be organized. Turquoise Tiospaye will review and approve resources before publication.
The Indian Health Service regularly publishes updates for Tribes, Tribal organizations, and Urban Indian Organizations covering health policy, behavioral-health programs, public-health resources, webinars, consultations, and federal initiatives.
Useful for: Tribal leaders, Native-serving organizations, health programs, behavioral-health teams, grant staff, and community partners.
Trauma-informed organizations realize how trauma affects people, recognize its signs, respond through policies and practices, and actively work to prevent retraumatization.
Useful for: Behavioral-health programs, schools, youth services, reentry programs, nonprofits, and community organizations.
The National Native Children’s Trauma Center describes culture, identity, family, community connection, and traditional knowledge as important sources of strength and protection for Native young people.
TTO perspective: Healing practices should be guided by the specific Native community involved. One Nation’s traditions should never be presented as applying to every Native person or community.
Useful for: Youth programs, schools, behavioral-health providers, family services, prevention programs, and community organizations.
SAMHSA's Tribal Affairs funding hub connects Native Nations and Native-serving organizations with behavioral-health grant programs, application resources, Native Connections information, and links to current federal funding announcements.
TTO review point: Always confirm applicant eligibility, required registrations, match requirements, and the official deadline before beginning an application.
The National Native Children's Trauma Center provides training and technical assistance on childhood traumatic stress, trauma-informed systems, culturally responsive practice, evidence-supported programs, implementation readiness, and organizational change.
Useful for: Native Nations, schools, behavioral-health providers, child welfare, juvenile justice, youth programs, and community-serving agencies.
SAMHSA's implementation guide helps organizations assess readiness, build leadership support, plan system change, strengthen workforce practices, revise policies, engage community members, and evaluate progress over time.
TTO perspective: Implementation should include local community voice, cultural review, staff support, accountability, and protection against retraumatization.
Turquoise Tiospaye is first measuring interest before paying for automation, subscriber software, or commercial research tools.
