“Every US state is receiving some amount of money from Opioid Settlements. How this money is dispersed and spent varies widely, but in every state and locality there is an opportunity to support harm reduction efforts and local health departments (LHDs) are critical to ensure that evidence-based public health approaches are prioritized. The National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) is partnering with Community Education Group (CEG) on a 3-part webinar series on Opioid Settlements across the country and how LHDs and their community partners can, and are, leveraging funds to support evidence-based syndemic strategies to reduce harms associated with opioid use and other drugs vulnerable to opioid contamination.

Please join us on Tuesday, May 9th, 2-3pm ET for an overview of opioid settlements nationwide and how funds may be used to support harm reduction efforts.”
