Welcome to our page! Bio is coming soon.
Adam Villagomez is Dakota/Chippewa and a graduate of tribal college - D.Q. University. He has been a certified substance use disorder counselor since 2009. He has been working at Sonoma County Indian Health Project – AOD program since 2004 where he provides individual and group counseling at SCIHP Outpatient Program. He also provides jail diversion services to local jails for Native American inmates who qualify for treatment instead of incarceration. Adam is a co-founder of Native Resistance Drum Group which was founded in 2004. He has been on the Canku Luta - Red Road which is being clean/sober and involved in his traditional tribal practices since 1993. A large part of being indigenous is the understanding of our place in history and connection to the land, therefore, activism for Native Rights and protection of sacred sites has been a few of many issues that he has been passionate about. He has experienced that the most successful recovery for Native Americans is being connected to their tribal culture, living by the values, virtues, diet and lifestyles of their ancestors. Adam has experienced that everyone is on their own spiritual path and is in support of anything that provides support and healing for the whole person.
Email Adam VillagomezHello!
My name is Dominique Gaitan and I am a long time resident of Sonoma County. My family has been here for five generations. We originated from Chihuahua and Durango, Mexico.
I started working for Non-profits at an early age. Now I own an Accounting and Bookkeeping firm. I provide my sevices to Non-profits and other industries. Non-profits have a special place in my heart. When I turned my life around twenty-eight years ago, the only people that gave me a chance was a Non-profit. I decided that whatever I could do, no matter how much I had in my pocket, or where I was in my life, I would give back to those organizations.
I enjoy volunteering and giving back to the communities in anyway I can. I am currently in a few local Chambers in Sonoma County as a member.
I am so happy to be a part of Mending Indigenous Spirits.
