Chapter Life
Let’s talk about Recreation of Change! Through our 8 week cohort ROC class Damone creates an incredible environment to help foster change through this journey for the participants. Over the course participants have focused on several target areas including:
Week One ~ Engagement Breaking the Ice and Building a Safer Community
Week Two ~ Defining Recovery, Science of SUD, and The 3 Triangles of Feelings
Week Three ~ Understanding and Managing Trauma both Social and Emotional
The participants had the opportunity to take part in Recovery Yoga in which they were taught how to use yoga with recovery as a way to channel themselves in relieving stress, trauma and emotional pain.
It’s our goal to continue to build pathways in recovery in supporting the youth aged 14 – 26 with life affirming tools to navigate social, emotional, and economic challenges in everyday life.

Little Earth Residents Association
Facebook Page
Little Earth is a 9.4 acre, 212-unit Housing and Urban Development (HUD) subsidized housing complex located in the urban industrial core of Minneapolis, Minnesota in the East Phillips Neighborhood. Home to nearly 1,000 residents, 50% of whom are under the age of 21, Little Earth was founded in 1973 and remains the only Indigenous preference project-based Section 8 rental assistance community in the United States. The Little Earth community has become a model for organizing on a variety of environmental and social justice issues, as well as a model of self-determination for all Native peoples. Although originally intended to be temporary housing, Little Earth residents prefer to live close to or in the community due to the community’s cultural identity and the need for cultural preservation.
