TRIBAL OPIOID RESPONSE - OPIOID USE AND MISUSE ARE ON THE RISE IN THE YUKON KUSKOKWIM (YK) REGION OF SOUTHWEST ALASKA. THE POPULARITY OF OPIOIDS IS ON THE RISE DUE TO ITS LOW COST OF PRODUCTION, EASE OF TRANSPORTATION AND AFFORDABILITY FOR THE USER. THE YUKON KUSKOKWIM HEALTH CORPORATION'S (YKHC) TRIBAL OPIOID RESPONSE (TOR) PROGRAM WILL PROVIDE RESIDENTIAL AND OUTPATIENT OPIOID TREATMENT, AND COMMUNITY OUTREACH AND EDUCATION TO OUR MANY TRIBAL COMMUNITIES. THE YK REGION IN SOUTHWEST ALASKA IS HOME TO 58 FEDERALLY-RECOGNIZED TRIBAL COMMUNITIES, MORE THAN 10% OF THE 566 FEDERALLY-RECOGNIZED TRIBES IN THE UNITED STATES. OUR REGION IS IN A VERY RURAL SETTING WHERE NO ROAD SYSTEM EXISTS AND AIR TRAVEL IS THE STANDARD METHOD OF TRANSPORTATION, WITH SOME VILLAGES ACCESSIBLE BY BOAT DURING THE SUMMER AND FALL MONTHS AND AN ICE ROAD DURING THE WINTER MONTHS. THE POPULATION OF 28,623 RESIDENTS IS SCATTERED OVER 75,000 SQUARE MILES, AN AREA LARGER THAN THE STATE OF OREGON.

THE HISTORY OF OPPRESSION, COLONIZATION, EPIDEMICS AND BOARDING SCHOOLS DEVASTATED OUR VILLAGES, AND RESULTED IN SEVERE SOCIAL ISSUES THAT CONTINUE TO DESTROY OUR PEOPLE. THE OPIOID EPIDEMIC IS AN ADDED THREAT TO THE LIVELIHOOD OF OUR PEOPLE, OUR FAMILIES AND OUR CHILDREN.
