Description

In this presentation, we highlight the unique government-to-government relationship that exists with not only the United States but that the State of Oregon has with its nine federally recognized tribes. There is a history of tribal sovereignty that is discussed and that gets narrowed down to Oregon State obligations towards the tribes and, more specifically, health- and behavioral health-related work that we do as State, County, Community and Tribal program partners.
