SaltFire develops and provides mental health services that center indigenous values and an indigenous worldview.
The name SaltFire is a combination of the words Saltwater and Fireweed. In an indigenous world view, humans are the younger relatives of all of the beings on planet earth: plants, animals, water and even the land itself. As the younger relatives it is our job to listen to and learn from the older relatives who surround us.
The name SaltFire evokes the cleansing power of saltwater and the healing properties of fireweed to inspire the work and services we provide.
