Life-Saving
Opioid Settlement History
The State of Florida filed a lawsuit against numerous defendants
including Purdue Pharma, Cardinal Health, and Johnson and
Johnson, among others, seeking compensation for incurred
expenses related to the opioid epidemic.
In June of 2021, the Collier County Board of County
Commissioners approved Resolution 2021-136 authorizing Collier
County to join with the state of Florida and other local
governmental units as a participant in the Florida memorandum of
understanding and formal agreements implementing a unified
plan for the use of opioid settlement funds.
Collier County's plan is designed to reduce opioid-related harm and prevent future addiction by investing opioid settlement funds in evidence-based prevention, treatment, recovery, and diversion strategies implemented through strong community partnerships.
INTERLOCAL AGREEMENTS
Description of Project:
Develop and distribute awareness prevention messaging and track the
number of individuals reached with the messaging.
Fire Rescue Departments: Track and report the number of Naloxone kits
distributed to the CDRT on a semiannual basis.
Incorporate Opioid awareness as well as Narcan use into CPR/AED
program and distribute Narcan at the main Fire Station.
Opioid funds are used for CPR Instructors staff time and Opioid teaching
materials. In 2025 these services reached and informed 414 individuals and
distributed 142 Naloxone Kits.

CONSIDERATION FOR FUTURE PREVENTION FUNDING AND POTENTIAL PROGRAMS TO ADDRESS GAPS
Future Funding Considerations –Continuum of Prevention, Treatment & Recovery Supports
Recovery & Treatment Engagement
◦UTURN Program
◦Peer-driven, 12-step–grounded recovery support
◦“Whatever it takes” model to ensure compliance (Drug Court, high-recidivism individuals)
◦Peer-Led Recovery Support
◦Lived-experience peers improve trust, outreach, and care navigation
◦Proven to increase treatment initiation & retention (esp. post-overdose, discharge)
Youth & Family Prevention
◦Family-Based Programs (e.g., Strengthening Families)
◦Improve parenting, communication, monitoring → reduces early use
◦School-Based SEL
◦Builds refusal skills, emotional regulation → reduces use (20–75%)
◦Mentoring Programs
◦Positive peer/adult relationships → reduces risk behaviors
Questions& Suggestions
What priorities should guide future
prevention funding?
What gaps remain unaddressed?
Which programs or strategies should
be prioritized to fill these gaps?
