It is estimated that California will receive approximately $2.05 billion from the California opioid settlement agreements over the next 18 years. Do you want a better understanding of how these funds will be utilized in California? Join us for an informative webinar presented by our partners at the California Department of Health Care Services. The webinar will provide an overview of how settlement funds are being distributed across the state, guidelines for their use on high-impact interventions, and ways you can connect with leaders in your community on local investment of funds. Come with your questions!
