Post Conference Event 2025
Building Hope for Healing: Exploring Implementation of Overdose Fatality Reviews in Tribal Communities Workgroup
This half-day virtual post-conference workgroup is cohosted by the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention leadership, in collaboration with the Comprehensive Opioid, Stimulant, and Substance Use Program (COSSUP) team at the Institute for Intergovernmental Research (IIR) and the National Criminal Justice Training Center (NCJTC) of Fox Valley Technical College, and is designed for:
- Tribal communities interested in overdose fatality reviews (OFRs) or partnering with existing OFRs.
- OFRs interested in and/or actively working with tribal representatives and/or communities to implement an OFR.
This workgroup will provide an opportunity for individuals to:
- Engage in peer exchanges.
- Give feedback on current OFR trainings and resources.
- Inform future training and technical assistance resources and tools.
- Shape culturally appropriate OFR resources for tribal communities.
We have limited seats available for this post-conference event. Those with a vested interest in tribal communities and who plan to contribute to workgroup discussions will have priority consideration.
