Assisting Tribes in tackling the opioid epidemic.

The Northwest Portland Area Indian Health Board (NPAIHB) Tribal Opioid Response (TOR) Consortium is comprised of 36 tribes in Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. Our primary aim is to assist tribes in tackling the opioid epidemic through increasing capacity to implement effective prevention, treatment, and recovery efforts.

Our work includes:

  • Developing a strategic approach for a comprehensive tribal opioid response (see the TOR National Strategic Agenda)
  • Expanding access to culturally appropriate prevention, treatment, and recovery activities
  • Promoting interventions that are community-tested, evidence-based, and draw from the strengths of tribal nations and peoples
  • For additional information about the TOR Consortium, please contact the TOR team at TOR@npaihb.org.
