A bill for an act relating to the opioid settlement fund, making appropriations, and including effective date provisions.

This bill establishes rules for using Iowa's opioid settlement fund. It requires 75% of unencumbered funds to go to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and 25% to the Attorney General's office annually, with both agencies submitting appropriation requests based on input from behavioral health councils. The bill appropriates $12 million for grants to specific nonprofits in cities of 24,500-25,000 population (2020 census) to expand nature-based recovery campuses for co-occurring mental health/substance use treatment, and $30 million for broader opioid crisis abatement efforts. Both agencies must report yearly on fund disbursements and impacts, and all funding must be labeled as a "one-time allocation from the opioid settlement fund" on related materials.
