S. Soto (Public Health, Policy & Translational Research)
Maricopa County is committed to tackling the challenges of substance use in our community. The opioid settlement funds provide only a small part of what’s needed to address substance misuse in Maricopa County. The challenges are complex and the intent of MCDPH is to ensure that every dollar is used wisely to create the most impact. This means:
Focus on projects that deliver immediate, measurable results and lay the groundwork for long-term change. The intent is to engage programs that meet urgent needs and address root causes of substance misuse so that the community benefits now and in the future.
Use strong data collection and evaluation practices to measure how well the programs work. This helps MCDPH to make informed decisions, improve our strategies, and ensure that funded programs truly make a difference.
Align our funding with other community resources. MCDPH will focus on areas where our money can fill gaps and support ongoing efforts, making our response as effective as possible.
Organizations may choose to apply for one or more focus areas and may propose multiple activities under each focus area. However, each organization can only submit one application, and the total budget for all proposed activities may not exceed $500,000.
