About Opioid Settlement Funds
What are Opioid Settlement Funds?
On February 25, 2022, the National Prescription Opiate Litigation Plaintiffs’ Executive Committee (PEC) finalized settlements totaling $26 billion with three of the nation’s top wholesale pharmaceutical drug distributors, in which fifty-two states and territories and thousands of local governments across the country will receive funds for current and future opioid remediation. Approximately $29 billion in additional settlements with opioid manufacturers and retailers is forthcoming.
Several Dibble clients have received Opiod Settlement funds from their states to use our materials, Mind Matters in particular, to prevent and mitigate the use and impact of opiods in teens and young adults.
What entity will receive funds?
Each state has its own internal agreement on how to split the funds between local governments (cities and counties) and the state.
Here’s a state-by-state guide to the opiod settlement funds.
How will funds be used?
Under the master opioid settlement agreement, the majority of funds from the settlement must be used for current and future opioid remediation.

Title II State Formula Grants

Title V Local Delinquency Prevention Program
Authorized by the JJDPA, Title V is the original, and still one of the only, federal programs specifically designed to prevent delinquency at the local level. To ensure a solid return on investment, the Title V program prioritizes the use of evidence-based approaches, requires the creation of a local policy board (“Promise Councils”) to engage in the development of prevention programming to ensure the unmet needs of at-risk youth, and leverages the commitment and resources of state and local jurisdictions by requiring that the state and local applicant provide a 50% match. 11% of funding under Title V must be awarded to Indian Tribes to be used for tribal juvenile delinquency prevention services and to care for at-risk or delinquent youth upon release.
