Aanji-bimaadiziwin Healing Center Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Aanji-Bimaadiziwin Healing Center is a residential recovery home in Turtle Lake, Wisconsin, in Barron County, operated by the St. Croix Chippewa Indians of Wisconsin as a culturally grounded treatment and sober living program.

A Tribally Operated Recovery Residence

The center combines a partial hospitalization treatment format with a sober, supportive residential environment, meaning clinical treatment and stable housing happen at the same address instead of being split between separate providers. Staff include a clinical director, AODA counselors and a case manager working alongside the residential side of the program.

Cultural Immersion as Part of Treatment

Aanji-bimaadiziwin, an Ojibwe phrase describing a change in one's way of life, builds cultural practice directly into treatment planning alongside standard clinical approaches. That combination is uncommon outside of tribally operated programs, and it gives residents a recovery framework tied specifically to their own community and history, not a generic curriculum.

Serving Northwestern Wisconsin

Turtle Lake sits in Barron County, in Wisconsin's northwestern region, an area with a much smaller concentration of recovery housing than Milwaukee or Madison. A tribally run residential program based here gives residents in this part of the state access to structured treatment without traveling to a metro area for it.

A Program Run by the St. Croix Chippewa Indians of Wisconsin

The St. Croix Chippewa Indians of Wisconsin operate the center as part of the tribe's own health and human services, which typically means priority access for tribal members alongside broader community eligibility. A prospective resident should confirm directly with the tribe how eligibility and referrals work.

No street address for the healing center is published online. Placement and intake questions go directly to the St. Croix Chippewa Indians of Wisconsin.
