Momentum Initiative Grant (MIG)

The Momentum Initiative Grant (MIG) was designed to support projects and organizations that strengthen systems of care and drive long-term impact across West Virginia’s substance use disorder response, including prevention, treatment, recovery, and workforce continuum.

Building on the lessons learned from the Initial Opportunity Grant, MIG reflects a more deliberate and disciplined approach, balancing urgency with accountability, evidence, and sustainability.

Through MIG, the West Virginia First Foundation is advancing nearly $18 million in funding to support initiatives designed to create lasting change across all regions of the state, representing a significant step forward in the scale and structure of opioid settlement investment in West Virginia.
