The Housatonic Valley Coalition Against Substance Abuse was formed in 1989 in response to concerns expressed by community leaders and citizens about the devastating problems associated with alcohol, tobacco and other drug abuse in Midwestern Connecticut.  At the same time, similar groups of concerned individuals were meeting throughout the State in search of a concept that would effectively and economically address their communities' substance abuse concerns.  The results of their efforts was legislation creating a statewide network of Regional Action Councils (RAC's), funded by the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services.  

The Housatonic Valley Coalition is a public/private partnership of people united in their commitment to prevent or reduce the incidence of alcohol, tobacco and other drug abuse in Midwestern Connecticut.  The Coalition's membership is comprised of:

• Municipal, School, and Law Enforcement Officials

• Health Care and Mental Health Professionals

• Minority Group, Business, and Legislative Leaders

• Substance Abuse Prevention & Treatment Professionals
