Apply For Funds

The South Carolina Opioid Recovery Fund is divided into the Guaranteed Political Subdivision SubFund and the Discretionary Subfund. South Carolina counties and municipalities who participated in opioid-related settlements (“Participating Political Subdivisions”) must submit requests seeking funding for approved abatement strategies from their available allocation of the Guaranteed Political Subdivision Subfund.

All other qualified applicants, including nonprofits, hospitals, state agencies, educational providers, and any other person or entity working to help address the opioid epidemic may apply for funds from the Discretionary Subfund.

All funding requests must be for an approved abatement strategy listed in the settlement agreement and described on the Opioid Recovery Fund Uses pages.
