During the segment, O&rsquo;Connor outlined the project&rsquo;s readiness, including secured land, zoning approval, and bipartisan support, while explaining that progress is stalled as the state works to release opioid settlement capital funds approved for recovery infrastructure.</p><p>The interview clearly defined the gap between treatment and long-term recovery, highlighting the population of men who complete 28-day programs and face housing instability and unemployment. O&rsquo;Connor detailed how the ranch model addresses that gap through structured living, work opportunities, and extended support.</p><div id=\"video-27320d71-772a-4388-aeb0-d0a981455065\" class=\"release-content-video release-content-video--embed release-content-video--expanded\">\n    <div><div style=\"left: 0; width: 100%; height: 0; position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%;\"><iframe data-iframely-url=\"https://cdn.iframe.ly/api/iframe?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.fox32chicago.com%2Fvideo%2Ffmc-33k4bd9nqhsb6s34%23_cb1776704522&key=8fe6cdec03482ac31f27a6ae8ea2fb3f\" data-img style=\"top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute; border: 0;\" allowfullscreen allow=\"encrypted-media *;\"></iframe></div></div><script async src=\"https://cdn.iframe.ly/embed.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"></script>\n</div><p>&nbsp;</p>",
