Greater Waterbury Opioid Workgroup
We meet the third Wednesday of each month, 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM at the CCAR Waterbury Recovery Community Center.
​​​
This Waterbury Opioid Workgroup has been developed as a result of the opioid crisis in our state. We are concerned prevention, treatment and healthcare professionals, law enforcement, local officials, people in recovery from opioid use disorders, family members and others who endeavor to reduce the harmful effects of opioid misuse, abuse and overdose weigh on our region.

Greater Danbury Opioid Workgroup
We meet the first Thursday of each month, 5:30 PM - 7:00 PM at the Stony Hill Fire Department in Bethel, CT.
​
Prior to the onset of the opioid epidemic, this workgroup operated as the “Recovery Committee” at Housatonic Valley Coalition. The Greater Danbury Opioid Workgroup is comprised of a number of different treatment providers, people with lived experience and recovery supports, and meets monthly. The group focuses on other substances and emerging trends related to vaping, benzodiazepines, and cannabis. We generally have an outside speaker at monthly meetings and we develop a legislative agenda every year. Members of our group belong to various sub-committees of the CT Alcohol and Drug Policy Council which helps us to stay connected to current statewide information and programs.​
