About the Opioid Settlement Fund Dashboards
The Massachusetts Statewide Opioid Settlement Funds are the result of legal action taken by the Massachusetts Attorney General’s Office (AGO) to hold various companies and individuals accountable for their role in contributing to the nationwide opioid crisis.
This webpage houses archival dashboards that let you explore how opioid settlement funds were used across Massachusetts in Fiscal Years (FY) 2023 and 2024.
These dashboards are presented as an archive to reflect the evolution of data collection, reporting processes, and overall system capacity over time.
For the most up-to-date information about how opioid settlement funds are used across Massachusetts, view the FY25 Opioid Settlement Fund Dashboard.
About the Opioid Settlement Fund Dashboard FY23
How to use the dashboard:
When hovering over a municipality, a pop-up will appear with information on the amount received and expended, and the total percentage of funds spent. For those municipalities that either did not submit a report or did not participate, the data is listed as unavailable. To see a municipality’s full FY23 Municipal Report, click on the name of the municipality.
You may also select a municipality or county from the drop-down lists located in the top right corner of the page. The default setting is the list of municipalities. To view the information and map by county, click the black button labeled ‘County Map’ in the bottom right corner of the dashboard. To return to the municipal map, click the black button labeled ‘Municipality Map’ in the bottom right corner of the dashboard.

About the Opioid Settlement Fund Dashboard FY24
How to use the dashboard:
The landing page of the dashboard displays aggregated state-level data from all reporting municipalities.
The tabs display the data in various geographic-level categories:
- Municipalities (by each individual city or town)
- Regions (Central, Greater Boston, MetroWest, Northeast, Southeast, Western)
- Opioid Abatement Collaborative (OAC), or two or more municipalities that have pooled their abatement funds through a formal agreement to maximize their investment
You can toggle between each of these geographic levels using the tabs along the top of the homepage.
For each geographic level, there are five informational subsections:
- Funding: gives an overview of funds received and expended and includes contact information for each municipality
- Shared Commitments: shows progress against three shared commitments stated in the Massachusetts State Subdivision Agreement
- Assessment and Planning: shows whether or not the municipality undertook various assessment and planning activities
- Populations Served: shows any funds spent, or planned to be used, specifically to serve particular population groups
- Strategy Implementation: provides more granular detail on how funds were spent
You can toggle between each of these categories using the tabs along the left-hand side of the screen.
The “i” icon located at the top of each page contains information about the data presented in the charts and graphs.
