The Pueblo of Taos, doing business as the Governors Office, received a $750,000 federal 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, which runs from September 30, 2024 to September 29, 2029, will fund the Taos Pueblo Tribal Opioid Response (TOR) program to provide a comprehensive range of services targeting the opioid crisis within the Taos Pueblo community.
The TOR program will deliver treatment services, including both inpatient and outpatient options, as well as recovery support, prevention, and harm reduction initiatives. The program aims to address opioid use disorder and substance use disorder through coordinated services for tribal members, staff, and the broader Taos Pueblo community. This federal grant award demonstrates SAMHSA's investment in developing specialized, evidence-based approaches to address behavioral health challenges within tribal populations.
