'Newtown Recovery and Resiliency Team' created

The Newtown Recovery and Resiliency Team has been established, with the help of grant funding.

 

Newtown has established a team of professionals, funded by a Department of Justice grant, to work in partnership with local recovery providers, community organizations and town employees in response to the continued needs in the community.  The six-member Recovery and Resiliency Team has a background in community behavioral health and clinical treatment. 

 

The Team is in place to build community relationships, provide resources and to facilitate and foster collaboration between service providers and funding sources.  The Team says they want to ease the burden of navigating the mental health system, which they say can be confusing. 

 

The office is located on 28 Traders Lane and members say there is an open door policy. 

 

The Team is led by Community Outreach Liaison Melissa Glaser, who has a background in community behavioral health and clinical treatment.  The other team members are: Project Manager Margot Robins; Clinical Recovery Leader Deb Del Vecchio-Scully; and three case managers Catherine Galda, Eileen Rondeau and Suzy DeYoung.
