Committee Sign Up

The Opioid Task Force implements and promotes an array of prevention, intervention, treatment and recovery strategies through its five working committees, most of which meet monthly or bi-monthly in Greenfield. Committee meetings and membership are open to all community members. See below for a brief description of each committee.

  • Education and Prevention: Identifying all the substance misuse prevention and education activities occurring in the county, cradle to grave, to focus on gaps and opportunities and increase trauma-informed practices in the community.
  • Healthcare Solutions: Strengthening collaborative efforts among rural healthcare providers to curb opioid overprescribing and increase trauma-informed training opportunities for health and medical professionals.
  • Housing and Workforce Development: Expanding the supply of sober housing, and working in partnership with others to create educational and training opportunities for individuals in recovery.
  • Law Enforcement and Justice: Increasing relationships between criminal justice systems and behavioral health agencies to help support community members in transition and addressing Narcan deserts in the region.
  • Treatment and Recovery: Sharing treatment and recovery resources and advocating for services that support individuals at all stages of their recovery journey, such as syringe access programs and peer-led recovery centers.
