(Collier County Seniors Fund 123) OBJECTIVE: To utilize funds received from the Florida Opioid Settlement Fund for activities necessary to address the opioid epidemic, including prevention, treatment, and/or recovery services for Collier County residents. CONSIDERATIONS: A local, state, and national crisis arose because of the manufacturing, distribution, and over -prescribing of opioids, and resulted in opioid abuse, misuse, overdoses, addictions, and death throughout municipalities, counties, states, and the nation. These activities contributed to the public health emergency and crisis commonly referred to as the opioid epidemic. Collier County and the municipalities therein have suffered from this crisis which has caused and is causing an undue strain on local government finances to implement programming, combat the opioid epidemic, mitigate the harmful effects of the opioid epidemic in the community, and increase educational campaigns to counteract misinformation about the addictive nature and harmftil effects of opioids and opioid abuse. As a result of the Phan-naceutical Supply Chain contribution to this crisis, The State of Florida filed an action in Pasco County, Florida. The National Opiate Litigation filed by the State of Florida and various local governments against pharmaceutical companies has resulted in numerous settlements being distributed to the State of Florida over multiple years. At their June 22, 2021 (Agenda Item #I 6K8) meeting, the Board approved the Collier County Resolution #2021 -13 6; authorizing Collier County to join with the State of Florida and other Local Government Units as a Participant in the State MOU and enter into formal agreements to participate in the Florida Plan.
