The State of North Dakota reached a settlement with opioid manufacturers and distributors to resolve claims they helped fuel the opioid crisis. Grant County received approximately $3,300 over the span of two years, with another $1,000 to be received in the next year. “Political subdivisions that received money as a result of the opioid litigation could deposit the money in the state fund or retain the money and transfer the money to the public health unit that provides services to that political subdivision,” said Erin Ourada with Western Plains Public Health. Grant County retained the money.
