Tribal Opioid Overdose Prevention Toolkit for Diverse Groups
Description
The purpose of this toolkit is to add to the compendium of tribal and urban Indian opioid overdose prevention summaries provided in An Environmental Scan of Tribal Opioid Overdose Prevention Responses (2019) and Models of Tribal Promising Practices (2020) by describing specific approaches to working with diverse groups within tribal and urbanIndian communities. Seven Directions, in partnership with the National Network of Public Health Institutes and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (CDC), aims to support tribes and urban Indian organizations with tailored and inclusive opioid overdose prevention programming resources for diverse AIAN groups. This toolkit provides tailored resources for supporting tribal and urban Indian community members who also are members of LGBTQ2S+ communities, youth, elders, and / or veterans.

About Our Practice
The Seven Sacred Directions
Seven Directions was born from a desire to create greater connectivity across the many tribes, communities and organizations that have the health and wellness of American Indian and Alaska Native people at the heart of what they do. We are guided by the “seven directions” of practice: Integration & Holistic Wellness, Culture & Identity, Families & Communities, Respect for Sovereignty, Service, Indigenous Knowledge, and Tribal Governance.
The Seven Sacred Directions serve as an indigenous framework for presenting the strategic directions for the public health agenda.
