  • Culturally centering alcohol use assessments: Insight from indigenous adults with lived and living experience

    Open Access•Katherine A Hirchak, Kelsey Bajet et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2026

    Objectives: There are high rates of both alcohol abstinence and hazardous drinking among American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) communities compared with non-Hispanic Whites. Few measures exist that examine alcohol use consequences within a relevant historical and cultural context for Indigenous populations, hindering the ability of communities, researchers, and practitioners to effectively address alcohol misuse. In the present study, we disc…

  • “Guide them to have a future orientation”: Qualitative findings in developing a reinforcement-based intervention to address alcohol use with American Indian emerging adults

    Open Access•Katherine A Hirchak, Kellie Webb et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2026

    Background The present study used qualitative research methods to assess interest in contingency management (CM; where incentives are provided after the return of an alcohol negative urine sample) enhanced with substance-free activities among emerging adults residing on a rural reservation. The research informs the future development and implementation of a clinical trial to address alcohol use among American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) 18-2…

  • Delivering opioid use disorder treatment among American Indian and Alaska Native adults during the Covid-19 pandemic and beyond: Facilitators and barriers to care

    Katherine A Hirchak, Kelsey Bajet et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Ethnicity in Substance…•2025

    Providers highlighted the utility in the expansion and sustainment of telehealth. Flexible policies for MOUD were particularly beneficial during the height of COVID-19 to maintain and increase access to treatment. Providing a menu of treatment options, emphasizing cultural engagement and social support were deemed necessary to enhance AI/AN community driven solutions in curbing the opioid poisoning public health crisis

  • Tribally-led mobile outreach: Improving access to harm reduction services in one rural reservation community

    Open Access•Allyson Kelley, Kellie Webb et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2024

    American Indian and Alaska Native populations in the United States face significant disparities related to opioid use disorder and opioid-related mortality. Inequitable access to medications and harm reduction strategies due to structural, societal, and geographical factors prevent Tribal communities from obtaining needed services, and further contribute to the opioid epidemic. One Tribal Healing Center in the Rocky Mountain region identified mob…

  • Provider perspectives on the impact of Covid-19 on treatment of substance use and opioid use disorders among American Indian and Alaska Native adults

    Open Access•Meenakshi Richardson, Katherine Hirchak et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2024

    Introduction: American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) communities are more likely to suffer negative consequences related to substance misuse. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated the opioid poisoning crisis, in combination with ongoing treatment barriers resulting from settler-colonialism, systemic oppression and racial discrimination. AI/AN adults are at greatest risk of COVID-19 related serious illness and death. In collaboration with an Indigenous…

  • Coming together for something good: Recommendations from a scoping review for dissemination and implementation science to improve indigenous substance use disorder treatment

    Open Access•Katherine A Hirchak, Oladunni Oluwoye et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2023

    Introduction Dissemination and Implementation (D&I) science is growing among Indigenous communities. Indigenous communities are adapting and implementing evidence-based treatments for substance use disorders (SUD) to fit the needs of their communities. D&I science offers frameworks, models, and theories to increase implementation success, but research is needed to center Indigenous knowledge, enhancing D&I so that it is more applicable within Ind…
