The Kickapoo Tribe in Kansas received a $750,000 Project Grant 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 support the continued development and expansion of the tribe's "KTIK Return to Community (R2C)" program, which provides comprehensive, culturally responsive behavioral health services including prevention, screening, treatment, and peer-led recovery for opioid, stimulant, and other substance use disorders. Key goals of the project include conducting a community-centered needs assessment, expanding medication-assisted treatment services, building a peer-led recovery system, and increasing trauma-informed supports to address substance use and strengthen intergenerational relationships within the Kickapoo community. The grant will enable the Kickapoo Tribe to further enhance its holistic approach to addressing behavioral health challenges and substance misuse that disproportionately impact the tribe's 1,600 enrolled members residing on the rural reservation in Kansas.
