"?Survey results will help prioritize how to best address opioid use disorder"

The Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) is asking the public to share thoughts on how to use a second round of opioid settlement funds to provide guidance on where money should be spent to reduce harms associated with opioid use disorder. Approximately $8 million will be available to support existing or new projects and programs in communities across Wisconsin. People can make their recommendations in a survey starting today through February 17, 2023. The survey is available in English [ [link removed] ] and Spanish [ [link removed] ]..

?The responses we received from the public and partners during listening sessions last year reminded us that addressing opioid use disorder in communities is not one-size-fits- all,? said Paul Krupski, DHS Director of Opioid Initiatives. ?Our plan reflects the specific needs of Wisconsinites, and we intend to use feedback from this year?s survey to do the same.?
