Connected Communities Prevent Opioid Use (CCPOU)

The Governor's Partnership to Protect Connecticut's Workforce, Inc., will use funding to develop coordinated prevention and intervention strategies for youth and their families who have been impacted by opioids and other substances. The Partnership will provide high-quality prevention programs by training 200 youth-leaders, between 13 and 17 years old, to expand the capacity of local schools and communities to provide prevention programming to students.
