  Ray Daw, a member of the Navajo Nation, noted that programs designed to treat Native-American populations with co-occurring disorders often incorporate traditional healing practices with psychoeducation and a focus on understanding trauma that has occurred on different levels.Daw is on the board of directors of the Takini Network, a nonprofit organization developed in 1992 by Maria Yellow Horse Brave Heart, Ph.D., to promote healing among Native-American clients with histories of trauma.He is also a member of the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's Co-Occurring Disorders Center for Excellence and co-chair of the National Institute on Drug Abuse's Native-American Workgroup.
  
  Daw also embraced the concept of prevention as embodied by the Edventures Group, in which clinicians and teachers work with at-risk Native-American youth to improve school attendance, academic performance and reduce behavioral problems.Daw is regional director of the program, which serves youth in six Arizona middle and high schools.

  The number of people picked up for public intoxication and placed in protective custody in Gallup has fallen from 34,600 in 1990 to an average of 14,500 in the last four years, said Raymond Daw, the group's executive director.
  
  "What made a difference was the Navajo Nation really jumped on the bandwagon to find projects that would work," Daw said.
  
  For example, the center employs eight Navajo traditional healers as counselors and works closely with communities on the nearby Navajo nation.
  
  "(Traditional healers) remind us that Navajo culture emphasizes personal responsibility . . . and taking care of one another," Daw said.

  The attendees listened as Raymond Daw, executive director for the Na'nizhoozhi Center in Gallup, N.M., described their detox program (see related story).
  
  "If you believe that treatment (alone) is going to change what's happening, it's not true," Daw told the crowd.
  
  The current policy for public intoxicants is to take them to Flagstaff Medical Center or the Coconino County Jail.Proponents for the detox center say that neither the hospital nor jail is appropriate for homeless alcoholics.
  
  Statistics released by the Flagstaff Medical Center showed that in 2001, there were 1,772 patients seen in the Emergency Department.
