The OneOhio Recovery Foundation is a private, non-profit organization established to manage and allocate 55 percent of Ohio's settlement funds received from the pharmaceutical industry for its role in the opioid crisis. The foundation aims to collaborate with local entities in enhancing substance misuse prevention, treatment, and recovery efforts, and to secure and mobilize resources towards sustaining these initiatives for Ohioans in the future.
The grant program from the OneOhio Recovery Foundation is designed to distribute funds from Ohio’s opioid settlement to combat the opioid epidemic within the state. It emphasizes evidence-based and forward-looking strategies focused on prevention, treatment, recovery, and the abatement of substance use and co-occurring disorders. The foundation has identified 10 priority areas for funding, which align with approved purposes and abatement strategies outlined in the OneOhio Memorandum of Understanding. This initiative seeks to make a substantial and lasting impact on the well-being of Ohioans affected by substance misuse.
