Mathis and the Greenwich Department of Social Services recently authored a comprehensive report for the Board of Selectmen on opioid use in town.

“The use and abuse of opioids are affecting members of our community from all backgrounds and walks of life,” said Rev. Maxwell Grant, Senior Minister of Second Congregational Church. “We need to learn everything we can about this challenge, and work together to support all families seeking health and healing”.
