National Kroger Settlement Brings Funding to Michigan Communities Damaged by Opioid Addiction
Michigan’s local governments have until Aug. 12 to request funds from the $1.2 billion National Kroger Settlement on opioid abuse. The Great Lakes state is expected to receive $42 million over the course of 11 years. Eligible communities, at the city or county level, can apply for the funding to be used toward drug abuse treatment. Agreements are expected to be effective by early fall. Michigan previously received more than $1.6 billion in settlement funds from Allergan Pharmaceutical, CVS, Janssen Pharmaceuticals, McKinsey & Co., Publicis, Teva Pharmaceutical, Walgreens and Walmart.
