Opioid Settlement Fund Grant Program

In response to the receipt of funds from the Opioid Settlements that were distributed through the State of Alaska to the Kenai Peninsula Borough, the Kenai Peninsula Borough established the Opioid Settlement Fund Grant Program through Ordinance 2021-19-50. This grant program is established with the intent to bridge gaps in funding from federal and state funding while also supporting Opioid Remediation efforts designed to address misuse and abuse of opioid products, treat or mitigate opioid use or related disorders, and/or mitigate other effects of the opioid epidemic.

This grant program is limited to no more than five grants. This limit is regardless of the amount of funding provided through settlement funds. Should more than five applicants submit for funding, a committee of five members will be established by the Grants Administrator and the applications will be evaluated based on the following criteria:
