Program Summary (BRIEF) Nataki Consult
1. How would you describe the people you intend to serve?
Nataki consult will serve those individuals between the ages of 14 and 60 who have

prior system use. Nataki Consult will only serve those individuals who agree to services
freely.

2. What specifically will you do to help them?
Nataki Consult will use various program methodologies (Seeking Safety, Lies That Bind,
Relapse Prevention, etc). Nataki Consult will specialize in Peer-to-Peer strategic interactions
that seek to empower clients and uncover their wealth of underutilized choices. Not only
will these interactions be purposeful, but they will assist in the development of foundational
boundaries that may be deficient. Each program methodology has its own unique
components that are designed to educate individuals about themselves from varied
perspectives. Once the client is able to clearly identify the path they prefer to take towards
freedom, Nataki Consult will assist them in the process of transitioning out of services and
onto their next phase of life.

questionnaires from various domains, which will have been identified during the initial
intake. This data will reflect the effectiveness/non-effectiveness of service delivery as
well as provide qualitative data on the areas of improvement versus the areas of
regression or non-movement. Last, yearly focus groups of 3-5 people will provide the
final piece of measurement data on program quality and prevention effectiveness.
Nataki Consult will use SOAP notes as Non-Clinical documentation.
