Cherokee County RCORP—Behavioral Health (RCORP-BH) is an initiative to deliver behavioral health care and support to individuals living in Cherokee County with Opioid Use Disorder (OUD), Substance Use Disorder (SUD), or other mental health conditions. RCORP-BH is a consortium of four providers based in Cherokee County—Cherokee County Health Services Council (CCHSC), a quasi-governmental organization; Northeastern Health Systems (NHS), a hospital-based provider with an outpatient treatment program (Northeastern Health Systems Addiction Resource Center (ARC); Northeastern Oklahoma Community Health Centers (NEO Health), a federally qualified health center, and CREOKS Health Services, a behavioral health provider. These organizations will collaborate to increase services to Cherokee County, population 47,078. Activities focus on three areas—alleviating structural- and system-level barriers; improving the quality and sustainability of rural behavioral health care services; and improving the capacity of the behavioral health care system to address community risk factors. All resources for RCORP-BH will be administered by agencies with program sites within Cherokee County.
