If you’ve been impacted by the opioid crisis in Wright County, the Wright County Opioid Settlement Advisory Council is seeking your input in a survey.

In 2021 the Minnesota Attorney General’s Office joined the historic $26 billion multi-state settlement agreements with pharmaceutical distributors McKesson, Cardinal Health and AmerisourceBergen, and opioid manufacturer Johnson & Johnson.

The Advisory Council created a survey to better understand the community’s priorities in the spending of the opioid settlement funds.

The survey takes about 10 minutes to complete and will close Friday, February 3^rd.

This settlement and others will bring about $4 million to Wright County over the next 18 years. Officials say the money must be spent to alleviate past and prevent future harm from opioid misuse.
