County cost-share requirements modification for economically distressed counties

Summary

The bill relieves counties that meet specific poverty and land‑tax‑exemption thresholds from paying their share of costs for certain mental health and substance‑use services. It also earmarks several new appropriations for opioid‑related programs, tribal healing initiatives, and child‑protection services tied to addiction. The changes aim to lessen the fiscal burden on the most financially strained counties while expanding resources to combat the opioid crisis.
