Promising Practices for Collaboration on State and Local Opioid Settlement Spending
This webinar will be held via Zoom Webinar. If you have issues registering or accessing the webinar platform, please email nacomeetings@naco.org.
Between 2022 and 2040, counties, cities and states will receive over $50 billion in payments from the national opioid settlements. As these payments roll out, continued state-local coordination is key to ensuring that resources are effectively invested. On June 26, join NACo and the National Academy for State Health Policy for a webinar on promising practices for state-local coordination in opioid settlement spending. Featuring state and local leaders from North Carolina and Colorado, the webinar will explore strategies that counties and states can pursue to align efforts, reduce duplication and ensure that settlement funds are directed to the greatest areas of need.
