HELENA – The
Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services will receive nearly $2.5
million in Department of Health and Human Services funds to combat opioid
misuse. The State Opioid Response grant will help the department more quickly
and accurately track overdose data and provide the funds to support prevention,
treatment and recovery services.
The grant is
administered by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration
and is especially focused on providing evidence-based treatment, including
medication-assisted treatment.
