All in opioids

After Years of Meetings, Davidson County’s $25 Million Opioid Settlement committee pushes to finally hire coordinator

During the meeting on Tuesday, several committee members vented frustration on the lack of progress, stating they have met for several years and have yet to come up with a clear plan on how to spend these funds. 

Lillian Koontz, director of the Davidson County Health Department, said she proposed the idea of hiring a coordinator for the opioid settlement funds over a year ago.
