The Akiachak Native Community received a $1,250,000 Project Grant award from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) under the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Projects of Regional and National Significance (CFDA 93.243) program. The grant will fund a 5-year Tribal Opioid Response program to implement culturally informed opioid prevention education and awareness activities, provide harm reduction services, and establish a crisis response team to serve community members of all ages in Akiachak, Alaska. Key program components include delivering Yup'ik-based opioid prevention curriculum in schools, expanding community-wide education and engagement, distributing harm reduction supplies, and training staff and crisis responders on naloxone administration. The program aims to reach 125 individuals in Year 1, 165 in Year 2, and 200 per year in Years 3 through 5, for a total of 890 beneficiaries over the project period.
