ABOUT ONETOGETHER SOLUTIONS

We partner with federally recognized tribes to develop, operate, and sustain opioid treatment programs (OTPs) under Tribal 638 self-determination agreements, with clinic sites across California and Washington. Our model is built on the belief that Indigenous communities deserve whole-person, culturally grounded care delivered with excellence — and that the infrastructure supporting that care must be equally strong.
