Department of Health Services Hosting Virtual Listening Sessions on Future Opioid Settlement Funds

January 07, 2022 3:46 PM | Anonymous

DHS | Opioid Prevention

The Wisconsin Department of Health Services is hosting a series of virtual listening sessions with stakeholders in January to hear ideas about how the State of Wisconsin could use future opioid settlement funds.

Currently, four opioid settlements are in process, each with varying and undetermined timelines. While we don’t yet know how much money the State of Wisconsin will receive from these opioid settlements, these listening sessions offer an opportunity for stakeholders to think big about what could be possible with settlement dollars.

Come with your ideas about what you would like to see happen with settlement dollars. The comments gathered in these sessions will help inform planning once the settlements are finalized.

We want to hear from all stakeholders, including opioid treatment providers and those with lived experience or who support individuals with opioid use disorders.

Share your ideas and comments at the listening sessions listed below or by filling out this survey by January 31, 2022.

Please join us by registering below for one of the 12 public listening sessions in January. (Please note that each session date has a unique link.)
