Tribal Opioid Response Project (TOR4) - Cherokee Nation’s Tribal Opioid Response (CN TOR) program is a comprehensive program of treatment, prevention, harm reduction, and recovery services for American Indians, all ages, with or impacted by opioid and stimulant use disorders.

Our program service area is the Cherokee Nation Reservation in Northeast Oklahoma.

The CN TOR program will provide evidence-based substance use disorder treatment and recovery services, including medication assisted treatment, for 110 individuals in year one and 120 in years two through five for a total of 590 individuals over the entire five year project period.

Additional services include harm reduction and prevention services for 675 individuals in year one, 685 in year two, 695 in year three, 705 in year four, and 715 in year five for a total of 3475 over the five year project.

The primary goals for this program are to increase access to culturally tailored treatment, recovery, harm reduction, and prevention services in tribal and rural communities, enhance capacity to provide a continuum of care for substance use disorder services, and to increase collaboration and promotion of recovery throughout Cherokee Nation communities.
