Opioid Settlement Focus Group

Seeking participants for July 15th

Help Shape Montague’s Response to the Opioid Crisis

The Town of Montague has secured funds from the statewide Opioid Settlement Agreement—which allocates resources from pharmaceutical manufacturers and distributors to support prevention, treatment, harm reduction and recovery services. Now, we need your voice.

Join a Focus Group
We’re convening a small group of residents to share real-world perspectives on how to invest these resources most effectively. Whether you have lived experience with opioid use, are a family member or caregiver, a service provider, or simply care deeply about this issue, your insights will guide decisions on:

Expanding treatment and recovery programs
Developing prevention and education initiatives
Strengthening harm-reduction services (e.g., naloxone distribution)
Fostering community-based support

Participation: One 90-minute discussion, RSVP required

Time: Monday, July 15 · 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM
Location: Montague Town Hall Annex

1 Avenue A Turners Falls, Ma 01376
Stipend: $50 gift card provided
