Who we are
We are the Ihanktonwan Oyate, working together to strengthen sovereignty and wellness through our Code and Healing to Wellness Court (HTWC) initiative. Guided by culture and community voices, our mission is to update and develop tribal codes that reflect healing, resiliency, and justice rooted in Ihanktonwan values.
With the support of 1. Mental Health Service Providers 2. Health Service Providers 3. Elder Representatives 4. Law Enforcement 5. Drug Counselors and 6. Traditional Knowledge Representatives, we are building a system that shifts from punishment to restoration. Our vision is a court and code system that empowers individuals, supports recovery, and uplifts the future of our people through balance, tradition, and hope.
