Public Funds and Financing - As introduced, requires that monies from the opioid abatement fund that are disbursed to nonprofit organizations for statewide, regional, or local opioid abatement and remediation purposes be disbursed as a combination of advance payment and reimbursement grants. - Amends TCA Title 9, Chapter 4, Part 13 and Title 33, Chapter 11.

Summary

The bill changes Tennessee law so that any opioid abatement money given to nonprofit groups must be split between an upfront payment and later reimbursement. About half of the grant must be an advance used for ongoing costs such as staff salaries. The goal is to give nonprofits cash flow while ensuring funds are spent on opioid‑related work.
