1 NATIVE ADDICTIONS SERVICES SOCIETY BOARD OF DIRECTORS BUSINESS PLAN ACCOUNTABILITY STATEMENT The Native Addictions Services Society (NASS) Board of Directors Business Plan for was prepared through a strategic planning process involving the Board of Directors, Executive Director and Director of Operations. We have taken into consideration our governance and accountability requirements of NASS as an incorporated entity under the Societies Act (Alberta) and in compliance with our NASS By-Laws. On behalf of the NASS Board of Directors, we are fully committed to work in partnership towards the attainment and achievement of the planned goals and outcomes documented in this Business Plan. Toby Racette, Board Chairperson Native Addictions Services Society Date
2 PREAMBLE The Native Addictions Services Society (NASS) Board of Directors is a policy governing Board that sets policies, prudently governs NASS, establishes its purpose and vision, develops support for the NASS programs and activities, maintains the financial and social well-being of NASS and hires an Executive Director to implement these policies. The legal responsibilities of the Board are as set out in the NASS By-Laws, as amended. Our not-for-profit organization serves Aboriginal and non-aboriginal communities across Alberta, specializing in programs dealing with addictions including drug, alcohol, and gambling addiction. NASS incorporates a unique cultural and spiritual healing experience while employing the 12-Steps and the philosophy of Alcoholics Anonymous. This provides the client with a holistic healing experience while learning the tools to attain and retain sobriety. Our programs provide a renewed sense of identity, and heal the mind as well as the body. Elder involvement and traditional ceremonies are key elements of all our client support programs. A strategic planning process was used to create the Business Plan, taking into consideration our major opportunities and challenges, strategic priorities and directions of the Board of Directors. This Business Plan identifies the Board of Director s three core businesses and the specific goals, outcomes, performance measures and strategies/initiatives for each core business. HISTORY OF NASS BOARD OF DIRECTORS 1974 Native Alcohol Services Society was formed under the Alberta Societies Act and began as an outpatient program in a small one-room office in the inner city of Calgary. The outpatient services were funded by the Local Initiative Project (L.I.P.) through Canada Manpower. L.I.P. Funds were eventually depleted and AADAC begins to fund NASS services. Crowfoot Sunrise Residence was opened in a house in Victoria Park SE for alcohol dependent persons NASS moves at least 4 times always in the downtown area.
3 1975 A long-term 20 bed co-ed residential facility opens in the community of Ramsey and was established under the name Crowfoot Sunrise Residence, formed under the Alberta Societies Act with funding from AADAC. The counselling and administration activities of NAS were housed in a rented facility in downtown Calgary Native Alcohol Services name changed officially under the Societies Act to Native Alcoholism Services The client-base rose to 400 requiring five full-time counsellors Crowfoot Sunrise Residence was renamed Sunrise Residence Society Native Alcoholism Services changes name to Native Addictions Services Society but retains acronym of N.A.S NASS adds Men s Spousal Abuse Group (CROW Group) with funds from United Way of Calgary and Area NASS partners with Elizabeth Fry Society to offer Women s Group on Aggressive Behaviours (EAGLE Circle) Board of Directors made a decision that NAS will no longer accept Justice or Solicitor General clients into residential program due to insufficient funds paid and clients were disruptive to the program. NASS and Sunrise Residence Boards of Directors finalize discussions to amalgamate programs and services each remaining housed in their separate facilities NASS and Sunrise Residence legally amalgamate as one notfor-profit agency with both Board of Directors merged into one Board. Majority of programs moved to NASS with clients transported each day from Sunrise Residence to NASS for groups and individual counselling Major fund raising initiative undertaken, raw land was purchased and a new NASS facility was designed and built. Sunrise Residence was sold to John Howard Society for their youth program.
4 September NASS former outpatient office is closed and moved to new NASS facility with the residential program relocated two weeks later. NASS employed 30 full and part time staff with AADAC as major funder. The new building is named SUNRISE Native Addictions Services Society however, legal name is retained as Native Addictions Services Society. October 2002 Official opening of a new facility (21,000 square foot) for Sunrise Native Addictions Services Society (SNASS) with the operations of Sunrise Residence and Native Addictions Services finally under one roof. June Long Term Residential Treatment (LTRT) begins. Name was changed in 2009 to Living Through Recovery Treatment Program The Board of Directors participates in a strategic planning session to develop the NASS Strategic Plan. Another planning session is held later in the year with key staff and management.
