St. Pete allocates $1M for opioid treatment, recovery

by The 100 Companies

St. Petersburg City Council approved a program supporting eligible nonprofits to fight against the ongoing opioid epidemic.

City Council allocated $1 million for the Opioid Support Grants Program, which will provide up to $25,000 in small grants and up to $100,000 for large grants for select priority impact areas, those that fill resource or service gaps in the community, where funding will support new and innovative initiatives not already funded through existing sources.

Funding will be available to qualifying proposals in the areas of treatment and recovery support services, overdose prevention and harm reduction, and substance use prevention and education.
