Buckeye Hills Regional Council serves as the administrative agent for Region 12 of the OneOhio Recovery Foundation, which was created to distribute the local share of funds from the State of Ohio’s settlement with the pharmaceutical industry as a consequence of its role in the national opioid epidemic. Region 12 is comprised of Coshocton, Muskingum, Guernsey, Perry, Morgan, Noble, Monroe, and Washington counties. The Foundation works with local interests to support substance misuse prevention, treatment, and recovery efforts and invests funds to support these efforts for Ohioans into the future.
