SUMMARY:Massachusetts Opioid Settlement Funding 101: What it Means for Your Community
DESCRIPTION:Over $50 billion dollars has been awarded nationwide as a result of successful litigation to hold pharmaceutical companies accountable for “fueling the opioid crisis through actions like downplaying the risks of prescription opioids and promoting the use of the drugs.” The Massachusetts Attorney General’s Office\, under the leadership of Maura Healey\, led these national efforts\, which resulted in Massachusetts receiving nearly $927M to support a range of opioid-related interventions. Learn more about how these efforts on Thursday\, April 27\, 2023\, from 2 PM – 3 PM for “Massachusetts Opioid Settlement Funding 101: What it Means for Your Community” with Catherine Madden\, Project Manager\, Opiate Task Force\, Massachusetts Attorney General’s Office\, and Phoebe Walker\, Community Services Director\, Franklin Regional Council of Governments. Participants will learn: *How the Commonwealth of Massachusetts benefits from these opioid settlement dollars. *How the state and municipalities are able to fund activities to mitigate the harm of over-prescribed opioids in their communities. *How to ask questions about funds available to municipalities at town meetings.\n \nYou can register for this free event here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUufu-vpzwoEtcoBKT9EXvc0FazrE5lIfhu.
