CHRT to help Michigan respond to opioid epidemic  

CHRT to help Michigan respond to opioid epidemic  

The State of Michigan received a $800 million share of the national opioid settlement. The dollars are being distributed across the state for local outreach and prevention measures. The Center for Health and Research Transformation will provide recipients of settlement funds across Michigan with information about evidence-based programs to address gaps in care experienced by Michigan residents. CHRT will analyze local data to help municipalities decide how to put the dollars to use. The goal: to reduce opioid-related harm and deaths.
