Leveraging Practical Tools to Manage Opioid Settlement Funds and Heal Communities



Join us for an insightful roundtable discussion as we delve into the complex landscape of opioid abatement amidst the ongoing crisis. With few guardrails on how settlement funds can be spent, stakeholders need tools and strategies to ensure effective use of funds and to measure what is working and what is not.
 
Key topics include:
  • Understanding the Landscape: Explore the current challenges faced by counties and states in managing opioid settlement funds, including limited resources and lack of oversight.
  • Ensuring Equity and Accountability: Explore strategies for ensuring equity-driven fund distribution, mitigating risks of potential fraud, waste, and abuse, and maximizing the impact of interventions, with a focus on lessons learned and best practices.
Through engaging dialogue and practical examples, participants will gain a deeper understanding of grant management and the role of measurement within the context of the opioid crisis.
