Alaska minimum-security halfway house to use Tlingit traditions

JUNEAU, Alaska --Alaska Native groups are converting a Southeast logging camp into a minimum-security justice center based on Tlingit traditions.

Bob Loescher, a consultant for the Hoonah Indian Association, a partner in the project, said the justice center will be more like a halfway house than a prison.

"This will be a low-security facility that will be involved in the counseling of people for drug and alcohol rehabilitation, job training, family reorientation and getting these people back on the road to a successful life," said Loescher, a former CEO for Sealaska, the Juneau-based regional Native corporation for Southeast Alaska.

The center, scheduled to open in Hoonah in the spring, has federal grants totaling $2.15 million and 5 acres of land donated by Sealaska. But it doesn't have a commitment from the state to send prisoners there.



The idea for the center came from the late Hoonah elder, Richard Dalton Sr., and Juneau's Alaska Native Brotherhood Camp 2. It is named Teeykat.aa Cultural Justice Spirit Camp and Healing Center, using Dalton's Tlingit name.

ANB Camp 2 President Andy Ebona said the plan is to use Native language, arts, crafts and other aspects of the culture to create a healing environment for people coming out of prison.

The ANB chapter ran similar but smaller, culture-based programs at the state prison in Juneau, Alaska and at a nearby halfway house that serves Alaska state inmates. The halfway house operator, the nonprofit Gastineau Human Services, is expected to run the Hoonah justice center once it opens, said GHS Executive Director Greg Pease.

Justice center organizers hope to reach an agreement with Alaska state Corrections Department, which runs Alaska's prison system and contracts with halfway houses and other treatment programs.

Department Deputy Commissioner Portia Parker said the department is interested in the program but not in providing financial support.

"We've explained to them our situation, that we'd be happy to work with them, but that there's no funding available for the state to be able to pay for this," she said.

Parker also said the spirit camp would need to pass state scrutiny for security and other standards before it could receive inmates.

The justice center will be based at the former Whitestone logging camp on Sealaska property next to the land the corporation donated. The camp was chosen because of its location and facilities, including an administration building, laundry, dining hall-kitchen and bunkhouses, Ebona said.

"That really fit our needs pretty well," he said.

Loescher said he's heard Hoonah residents' concerns about bringing convicted criminals into the community.

"We've assured them that the people that are being brought over there are misdemeanor offenders and people who are not necessarily felons. And that the people who come there will be in their last six months to a year of their service in the corrections institutions of the state," he said.

Loescher said Hoonah residents will be among the people served by the camp. They also will be among the 41 workers expected to find year-round employment at the facility.

Ebona said the center will open in March or April with 20 offenders, eventually expanding to 60. While it will target Alaska Natives, it will be open to all, he said.

He said the center has enough grant money to run for a year, maybe more, and can take people from substance-abuse and other programs not directly tied to the Alaska state prison system.

But he said the goal is to contract with the prisons.
