Stephen recently participated in a panel hosted by the Stubblefield Institute that focused on how the funds from the national opioid litigation settlements were being used in West Virginia. The event, “How is WV First Putting WV First?” discussed the creation of the West Virginia First Foundation and the distribution of the money from the Foundation. Jonathan Board, Executive Director of the WV First Foundation, was along with Tim Czaja, Region 2 Director of WV First Foundation and Director of Berkeley County Community Corrections, and Matthew Harvey, President of WV First Foundation and Jefferson County Prosecuting Attorney, also served as a panelist along with, Steven Travis, General Counsel for the WV Attorney General’s Office.
After years of fighting for these funds from the corporations that promoted opioid addiction, Stephen is proud to have helped deliver hundreds of millions of dollars to West Virginia.
