Anoka County Seeking Members To Join Opioid Advisory Council

As part of the National Opioids Settlement, Anoka County expects to receive approximately $18 million in disbursements over the next 18 years — these funds will be used to address the opioid crisis and prevent opioid deaths in the community.

To manage this funding and respond to the misuse of opioids in Anoka County, the county has established the Anoka County Opioid Solutions Initiative, according to a county press release. The county is seeking members to join the ACOSI Advisory Council. Anoka County is looking for people with lived experience and professionals from organizations throughout the community to ensure equitable representation and a voice in the opioid response.
