Add to calendar Attorney General Todd Rokita distributes $21.7 million to Hoosier communities in latest wave of opioid settlement funds
Opioid Settlements alone total over $1.1 Billion under Rokita Administration
Attorney General Todd Rokita is distributing $21,763,819.19 to Indiana cities, counties, and towns in the latest round of payments from opioid settlements secured under his leadership. These settlements were secured from companies that allegedly contributed to the state’s opioid epidemic through irresponsible and/or unlawful actions.
“These funds empower our communities to fight back against the devastating impact of opioid addiction,” Attorney General Rokita said. “While no settlement can undo the harm caused, this money supports critical efforts to prevent future crises and provide meaningful support to Hoosiers in need.”
The payments stem from settlements with CVS, pharmaceutical distributors (McKesson, Cardinal Health, and AmerisourceBergen), Allergan, and Teva. Under Attorney General Rokita’s leadership, Indiana’s opioid settlements now exceed $1.1 billion.
Local governments have flexibility in using these funds, which can support drug disposal programs, drug task forces, regional treatment hubs, early intervention, crisis support, and other programs aimed at addressing or preventing opioid use disorder and overdoses. Guidelines are available on the Attorney General’s website: https://www.in.gov/attorneygeneral/.
The settlement framework maintains a 50-50 split between the state and local governments. The over $21.7 million allocated to local communities represents 50 percent of this round’s payments, with the other 50 percent directed to the State of Indiana. Local communities are encouraged to seek information about the state’s share to access additional resources.
A detailed list of estimated payments to each community over the full 18-year settlement period is available on the Office of Attorney General’s website: https://www.in.gov/attorneygeneral/.
