Bill > HB3009

This bill amends Oregon's existing law regarding the Jail-Based Medications for Opioid Use Disorder Grant Program by expanding the definition of "local correctional facility" to include additional types of county facilities. Specifically, the bill broadens the definition to encompass not just traditional jails, but also any facility operated by a county supervisory authority that provides corrections supervision or custodial services. This expanded definition would allow more county facilities to be eligible for grant funding to provide opioid use disorder treatment and transition planning services. By including a wider range of county facilities under the program, the bill aims to increase access to medication-assisted treatment for individuals with opioid use disorders who are in county correctional settings. The change is part of a broader effort to address the opioid crisis by ensuring more comprehensive treatment options for individuals in custody.
