Kentucky has been hit hard by the opioid crisis, and the consequences have caused suffering and grief for many families.

Counties should receive a total of seven payments this month (Dec. 2022), including two from the Distributor’s settlement and five from the J&J settlement.

Attorney General Daniel Cameron announced today that Kentucky will receive an estimated $460 million settlement from opioid distributors as part of a $26 billion multi-state agreement between opioid distributors and state attorneys general.
