A state commission has awarded nearly $14 million in the latest round of funding to groups serving “in the trenches” to combat Kentucky's drug abuse problems, Attorney General Daniel Cameron said Monday.
A few dozen groups will receive portions of the $13.9 million, which stems from a massive settlement with opioid companies. It continues the flow of money to grassroots groups specializing in drug prevention, treatment and recovery services as Kentucky struggles to overcome the deadly scourge.
