How to Write a Strong Quarterly Report Narrative |
Step 1: Review your implementation Plan
Your implementation plan is found in the Objectives, Activities, and Proposed Measures section of OGX. This serves as your guide for narrative reporting.
Step 2: Report Progress by Objective and Activity
- Organize your narrative by Objective and Activity
- Describe progress on each Proposed Measure for each activity
- Report quantitative results (e.g., number of trainings delivered, number of people served)
- Compare progress to goals:
- Your target
- Progress this quarter
- Total progress to date
Step 3: Report Challenges or Delays
If progress was limited:
- Explain what caused the challenge or delay
- Describe steps you are taking next
Step 4: Double-Check Your Report
Return to the implementation plan and ensure:
- All aspects of the plan are addressed
- No unrelated activities are included
These steps are also located in the Oklahoma Opioid Abatement Grant Compliance Guide along with an example report.

Medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) is another priority funding strategies adopted by the Opioid Abatement Board. MOUD is the front-line approach for treatment of people with opioid use disorder. This evidence-based approach uses FDA-approved medications in combination with comprehensive support services like medical care, mental health treatment, addiction counseling, and recovery support. This briefing document includes an overview of MOUD, who is the target population, and what to consider if you are interested in MOUD as an opioid abatement strategy.
