2026 Opioid Remediation Grant Informational

Opens: July 7th, 2026
Closes: September 1st, 2026

As part of the $26 billion national settlement, which is intended to resolve several thousand lawsuits against drug manufacturer Johnson & Johnson, which is based in New Jersey, and the country’s three major pharmaceutical distributors: AmerisourceBergen, which is headquartered in Conshohocken, Texas-based McKesson, and Cardinal Health in Ohio, Susquehanna County will receive an allocation of funds. The companies have not admitted any wrongdoing under the settlement agreement and will make payments over 18 years.

The Pennsylvania Allocation is based on input from a Working Group of Local Government Stakeholders, Counsel and Treatment Community Voices and the allocation will be established as a Trust that cannot be amended later. The total dollars allocated to Pennsylvania is $1,070,609,642 with 70% allocated to counties based on metrics i.e., overdose deaths, hospitalizations, naloxone administrations, and Morphine Milligram Equivalents (MME), 15% to Litigating Counties, Subdivisions, DAs, and Special Districts, and 15% controlled by the Legislature.

85% of total funds on a nationwide basis must be utilized for opioid remediation. At least 70% of total monies on a nationwide basis must be utilized on forward-looking abatement rather than restitution. $150,000.00 will be given out in grants. Organizations can apply for grants to support projects and programs that provide abatement strategies and related services to local communities. Priority will be given to grantees utilizing the funding for projects and programs following core abatement strategies outlined in Appendix A, particularly as it relates to treatment and issues of staffing.
