Webinar Description
Billions of dollars from the national opioid settlement are being allocated to state and local governments. This funding presents a rare opportunity to support meaningful risk reduction efforts—particularly in high‑liability areas such as law enforcement, training, exposure control, and operational readiness.
As part of NLC-RISC’s ongoing partnership with Lexipol, we’re hosting a webinar and sharing their article to help risk pools understand how to align opioid settlement dollars with proven loss‑control strategies, improve defensibility, and stabilize long‑term exposure.
