The Quapaw Tribe of Oklahoma is opening a for-profit methadone treatment center.
Quapaw Counseling Services will be the first tribal-operated methadone center in the state.
It is set to open in June.
Methadone is used to treat addiction and withdrawal to narcotics like heroin. Treatment can take years, according to the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy.
