Communities and families across the state need support to counter the opioid epidemic and its harmful effects. The Texas Opioid Abatement Fund Council (OAFC) is seeking public feedback in deciding funding priorities for initiatives that will help Texans do just that.
To help the OAFC better understand Texans’ viewpoints on opioid abatement and promote transparency and accountability in the disbursement of opioid settlement funds, a survey is open to the public through Oct. 30.
The opioid crisis impacts the health and safety of all, and Texans can do their part to help. We invite you to take the survey and share your thoughts on how to meet the needs in your community. Then, send the survey to your local networks and encourage them to do the same.
