Leah Rouse says she\u2019s a partner, not a leader, in her ongoing work with the Oneida and Menominee nations.<\/p>\n

Rouse, an associate professor of educational psychology and counseling psychology, coordinates a team that is working with the nations on projects to improve access to mental health and wellness in tribal lands in northern Wisconsin.<\/p>\n

The Menominee and Oneida nations face similar challenges to other American Indian communities, according to Rouse and the leaders of the Oneida and Menominee projects.<\/p>\n

American Indians\u00a0have the highest rate of\u00a0death by\u00a0suicide in Wisconsin; police officers, like others in the profession, face challenges with mental health and wellness; and Oneida Nation High School students, like many others in Wisconsin, are still affected by the lingering impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

\u201cIndian country suffered disproportionally during the pandemic,\u201d Rouse said. \u201cThere are cumulative disparities due to lack of resources, and generational trauma is widespread.<\/p>\n

\u201cHundreds of years of colonization have had an impact. The boarding school era had an effect on generations of people removed from their families. We need to help them recover from that.\u201d<\/p>\n

A key need, Rouse said, is for Indigenous mental health clinicians who are sensitive to the nations\u2019 culture and history.<\/p>\n

She is partnering with the Oneida and Menominee\u00a0nations to boost the numbers of Indigenous people who receive training\u00a0as school and mental health counselors serving American Indian clients and schools by offering remote access to graduate training.<\/p>\n

The Strong Fire Initiative<\/h3>\n

The federally funded Strong Fire Initiative is helping prepare American Indian school counselors through an innovative virtual master\u2019s program serving students living in tribal communities in rural northern Wisconsin. Being able to live and work in their communities while working toward their degrees helps overcome transportation barriers. The federal grant also provides financial support for the students.<\/p>\n

The School of Education now has its second cohort in the program, according to Rouse. Students are completing practicum coursework at the Oneida Nation School District and the Lac du Flambeau community. In the future, students will also be placed at the Menominee Tribal School.<\/p>\n

The grant \u00a0program is a part of<\/a>\u00a0federal efforts to\u00a0double<\/a>\u00a0the number of school-based mental health professionals.<\/p>\n

In an interview with the Hechinger Report<\/a>, Rouse said colleges used to be reluctant to offer online programs in counseling psychology, worrying that quality would suffer. \u201cThe pandemic showed we can do quality training and supervision with remote instruction,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe recognized the need for increased mental health services with students coming back after two years away during the pandemic,\u201d said Artley Skenandore, principal of the Oneida Nation High School who is working with his team and Rouse on the initiative. \u201cAchievement has taken a dive. We wanted additional support for our school.\u201d<\/p>\n

The school district previously had worked with UW-Milwaukee, said Skenadore, who earned his undergraduate degree from 51ÁÔÆæ and has an education doctorate in First Nations education from UW-Green Bay.<\/p>\n

The school is focusing on building an American Indian perspective into counseling services, encouraging students to support each other. \u201cThat strength of mind and spirit of Strong Fire will make that fire of our tribal nations brighter,\u201d Skenadore said.<\/p>\n

Maehnowesekiyah Wellness Center<\/h3>\n

The Maehnowesekiyah Wellness Center is located in an area that has the highest rates of death by suicide in the state. It is also one of the poorest areas in the state, according to Addie Caldwell, director of wellness programs at the center. The wellness center\u2019s mission is to provide culturally specific alcohol, drug, mental health, adolescent, domestic violence treatment, education and support services for American Indian clients and their families.<\/p>\n

For the past four years, Rouse and her team have been working with the center to evaluate programs and provide support through placement of doctoral Counseling Psychology practicum students who work on mental health and substance abuse recovery. Another group of students are involved in epidemiology work on suicide prevention. The work was funded under a larger grant the Menominee Nation was awarded by Indian Health Services to focus on community supported mental health services and suicide prevention.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving the collaboration has helped us focus on programs that help prevent suicide and get staff trained on how to respond,\u201d said Caldwell. Although the evaluation of data isn\u2019t finished, anecdotally the center sees suicides going down. Even without the exact numbers, Caldwell added, \u201cone life saved matters.\u201d<\/p>\n

Oneida Nation Police Department<\/h3>\n

Police work is stressful no matter where it\u2019s carried out. Rouse, a former police officer who has done extensive research on law enforcement mental health issues, has been working with a team from the Oneida Nation police force.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wanted to not just focus on mental health, but on wellness,\u201d said Lt. Brandon Vande Hei of the department. The wellness program, which started in 2020, includes check-ins and other supports, and was recently recognized by the International Association of Chiefs of Police, the largest and most distinguished professional association for police leaders.<\/p>\n

With Rouse\u2019s help, the department developed an in-house, holistic wellness program based on the best practices in law enforcement wellness and traditional Oneida cultural values.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are trying to make the focus congruent with tribal values,\u201d Vande Hei said. \u201cPolice officers can serve as role models. We can make change in the community, so it\u2019s important that we have culturally specific training and competence.\u201d<\/p>\n

The citation from the police chiefs association award read: \u201cThrough his leadership in this initiative, Lt. Vande Hei acts, in the most traditional sense, as a warrior for the people.\u201d<\/p>\n

Overall, said Rouse, the programs focus on the close family ties and taking care of each other that are an important part of American Indian heritage. \u201cWe stress that it\u2019s important to be a good relative.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
