Supporting Decision Makers Using Opioid Settlement Funds
This collection of webinar recordings exploring how state and local leaders can use opioid settlement funds to support public health approaches to substance use and overdose prevention. Hosted by Prevention Institute and partners, the series highlights opportunities to invest in prevention, community engagement, and long-term impact.
Speakers share perspectives from research, local implementation, and community leadership. Topics include how jurisdictions are currently allocating settlement funds, the importance of engaging People with Lived and Living Experience (PWLLE) in decision-making, and approaches for planning, monitoring, and evaluating prevention strategies.
Together, these conversations offer practical insights for policymakers, public health leaders, and community partners working to advance community wellbeing.
