    I worked at a "non-profit" recovery center in 2021 and they gave priority placement to indigenous folks because the facility could charge $7,500 a month to government subsidized healthcare. This has been a problem for years and is a result of relying on the private sector to provide services while monetizing a national health crisis.

      Health care is a FOR-PROFIT INDUSTRY. Another myth of America is that their physicians, hospitals and health care providers actually care about anything but their "hip pocket". Got to laugh at our continued willingness to get gaslighted every darn day. But there you have it - ignorance + myth.

    Heres what my experience as an Indigenous dude with a mental disorder.
    One day i decided my experiences were enough and building on eachother. I went to my nearest counseling center. I explained to them what I felt and what i am dealing with. The woman councilor i was talking to leaves and comes back 5 minutes later saying
    *YOU ARE ON CRISIS* (I verbally rejected that statement) then she presented 2 choices to me. I can either go willingly into a mental health facility or I can go to jail against my will and be charged with attempted suicide. I chose the former as she stated me leaving the premises will make her call the police. Since i filled out papers she knew where i lived and thus was trapped.
    My experience inside the facility i was *COERCED* into being was one filled with self indulgence. Not listening to simple commands will extend your stay (I remember wearing my slippers and a female attendee told me to take them off. I joked and said whatever its okay im leaving today. She got angry and said "I will extend your stay until next week if you dont *COOPERATE* ." Not to mention they had no room for new residents and forced me who had no reason for being there to share my space with people who had REAL PSYCHOLOGICAL PROBLEMS. The ONLY SINGLE LICENSED therapist who comes by ONCE A WEEK was my only saving grace. Without him the people there would've kept me long
    I am never seeking mental health assistance in Arizona ever again. Despite my sufferings, I'd rather be free than experience the abuse of power these facilities have.

      Oh my...this is absolutely heartbreaking. This is a HUGE problem - I don't understand WHY this isn't being talked about more. I want to share this video and comment with a channel I watch. They are my favorite podcast and they cover missing persons and strange phenomenon or circumstances etc. Search on RUclips, "Mile Higher Podcast"....They're husband and wife, Kendall Rae [wife] also has her own channel with millions of subscribers and she too covers missing people only on her channel. They live in Colorado but they cover cases all over America and more. I am in recovery so the fact that she was thinking she could finally get help and this happens! Makes me nauseous. I hope and pray you are reunited with one another ♡ If you want to possibly share your story, look those channels up and tell them your experience. They even have family members on the podcast sometimes who advocate for their missing family member ♡ It really helps get that person's story out there since mainstream media here in America doesn't help with much if anything because they don't tall about the things they SHOULD often enough or at all.

    My dad is a member of the Navajo nation ,he was born on the reservation in Arizona. He left the reservation decades ago but from time to time we go back to visit relatives. I am disgusted and appalled by the living conditions on the reservation. When the whyte man stole our land and then "gave us back" reservations, they deliberately surrendered the least desirable (and most rural) land to keep us out of sight out of mind. The soil is dust you can not grow food, the areas are so remote there are no jobs to sustain the people, bad weather conditions. And corruption within the tribal leadership is beyond rampant as many of them (though not all) only care about casino revenue.
    The reservation is a trap, it is a cycle of addiction and poverty for most indigenous people. I am glad my dad left and made a better life for us.

      White man didn't steal your land. It wasn't your land to begin with. Your people immigrated here like everyone else has. They came from Asia. This land was occupied long before your people immigrated here. Did they also steal the land from the prehistoric man, and the cave dwellers?
      History can't be taken in snippets. It's all or nothing. We're lied to about everything in history because they choose to just teach little snippets of history. Like Christopher Columbus. He didn't discover anything. For one, your people were already here. For two the Vikings visited before he did. And for three, he landed in the Bahamas, not the mainland US.

The fear mongering media will never talk about the facilities that are SAVING Indigenous families, because the government doesn't want to dish out funds to the people they made promises to. 😢 They gave your people alcohol & food low in nutritional value as they forced you off YOUR land. I think it's time you band together to take back what is yours for treaties that are not being held up. 🙏🏻 Praying for my Indigenous brothers and sisters. 🙏🏻

They even had ex addicts who knew how to lure the fresh ones in and played them like a merry go round, it's all based on a true story.

    Twice I saw these same type of vans approach bus stops in Flagstaff on Rt 66 and again on Hwy 89. I saw individuals of native descent who were resting at the bus stops. I could see from my vehicle that the white vans drove up to these bus stops and someone got out of the van in each instance, approached the individuals resting there. In one of the instances I saw the native person being assisted into the van. One of the small vans was unmarked, the other simply had a sign on it that read “SUPERVISOR”. I have seen similar/identical vans near bus stops and in different locations around town only since the COViD events/not prior. Something inside told me this was not any kind of *normal* activity. I felt an unsettling type of questioning inside at what I witnessed, but couldn’t identify any reason to alert authorities at the time. This happened the first time in 2020, the second instance was 2021. At the time i was seeing quite a few of these types of vans driving around. I haven’t seen them in a while... maybe 6 months or so since I have seen any. Very sad and disturbing.

    The obvious answer is the rehab centers that intake the missing persons. Those vans have license plates. Trace and track them.
    Nothing is being done because nobody cares. FBI agencies need to partner with Navajo Intelligence agents and DRIVE directly to the rehab facilities, get a search warrant, conduct impromptu investigations.
    If civil servants refuse to help you they are not complicit, but guilty. They need to start a petition and get the awareness of the state's AG. If the people are asked to get inside the van and willingly go, that's not a crime that's cooperation.

Her own daughter doesn't even know where she was buried! People have been screwing others for centuries, it will never stop! The victims Change and crimes Change over the years but it continues! Man's inhumanity to man!

    Do you know that these people don't have to have licenses in mental health. I have a BA in psychology and I would never think that was enough to run a facility of the sort.
    These people running these don't even have to have a high school diploma. This is truly sick and why is someone not doing anything? Prayers for someone to wake up and care about this. We are all the human race and this should not be over looked.

      @@jortsChannel That is what I am talking about. They don't have to have any background or education to be able to get so much money from the government to start up. What the heck is going on with that? No one has ever thought well we might need to set some guide lines for people racking in millions that are supposed to be treating people. We have folks dying every day physically addicted to fentanyl and other opiates and here we are still funding these people. Now this is the first I have heard about them taking people and what killing them? Where are some of these people ending up? And why does no one care?? This needs to be shared to the major media.
      Best wishes to all and praying each day for some one to stop day dreaming and start making some stuff change in Phoenix.

    It’s easy to find the people who are doing this criminal act, just follow the money. That simple.
