City details named programs, phased awards and community grant winners from opioid funds
Summary
Officials said 18 of 22 named programs have executed agreements, three programs are on hold, and separate competitive grants awarded $2 million among 11 organizations; the administration cited planning phases for some large initiatives.
Director Elizabeth Tatum walked council members through the program categories and status: named programs set out in settlement agreements and separate community competitive grants selected by the Restitution Advisory Board.
Tatum said "of the 22 named programs, 18 have at least 1 grant agreement executed, 1 has a grant application that's still being drafted, and 3 are on hold." She added $47.3 million is represented within grant agreements, $1 million for an application in progress, and $15 million allocated to three programs on hold with $23.7 million to programs scheduled for phased funding. Tatum highlighted B Corps (Baltimore Comprehensive Overdose Response to End the Epidemic), Hope's Safe Haven renovations, and community grantees such as Drink at the Well and We Are Us as examples of how ORF dollars are being deployed.
Officials said the separate competitive fund made $2,000,000 available, received about 100 letters of interest and applications, and selected 11 organizations across three tiers focused on mobile treatment, harm reduction and low‑barrier social support.
