Community Opioid Intervention Project

Community Opioid Intervention Project

The purpose of the Community Opioid Intervention Project is to address the opioid crisis in the Fairbanks North Star Borough from a tribal perspective.

COIP is an outpatient program that provides opioid education and awareness to the community through different outreach efforts in areas related to prevention strategies, harm reduction, and reducing stigma.

One of our focal points is to increase access to medication-assisted treatment services through referrals and case management. This increases the chances of long-term recovery.

Additionally, COIP is designed to strengthen family systems through traditional engagement activities, recovery support, elder involvement, and peer support. Our target population is Alaska Native/American Indian adults; however, educational efforts are for all community members.
