MILLINOCKET, Maine Wabanaki community members gathered in Millinocket on Wednesday to see the new Wabanaki Gathering Place recovery center, an effort tribal leaders and community members have been working on for many years.
The campus along the Penobscot River stretches 45-acre property and offers support programs for indigenous people who need recovery or healing services.
In addition, medicinal gardens, traditional music and foods, and simply enjoying what the Penobscot River has to offer are just some of the things indigenous community members can enjoy for free at the center.
