How did this Work Come About?
Attorney General Phil Weiser and local government leaders unveiled a first-of-its-kind joint framework for distributing statewide over $400 million that Colorado stands to receive from litigation settlements reached with companies who fueled the opioid crisis. For more information on the joint framework and litigation settlement click HERE.
Adams County is one of 19 regions across Colorado that was allocated litigation settlement funds. RMP is supporting Adams County Government and the region to address issues impacting the community as a result of the opioid epidemic in alignment with the state-wide joint framework and ensuring funding from these settlements are invested in the region in a way that will have the most impact.
This Regional Council will serve the function for administering these funds to address the opioid crisis in Adams County. Learn more about this effort HERE.
