In partnership with Western CT Coalition, NCPN is helping share the first-ever Western CT Adult Health Survey!

This survey is open to anyone 18+ who lives or works in Western Connecticut and will help better understand adult health trends, community strengths, emerging issues, and prevention needs across the region.

The survey takes about 14 minutes to complete, and responses are anonymous and confidential. The information collected will help inform future health promotion and prevention efforts.

📋 Take the survey by scanning the QR code on the flyer!

Thank you for helping us better understand and support our communities!

September is Su***de Prevention Month. 💙 Su***de prevention starts with all of us. Together, we can create communities where people feel seen, supported, and connected.

As part of our work in the Northwest Corner, NCPN is committed to supporting the well-being of our youth, families, and community. We all have a role to play in creating spaces where people feel comfortable reaching out, asking for help, and knowing they’re not alone.

📞 If you or someone you know is struggling, call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline.

Did you know that most Region One students are already making healthy choices? 💙

The majority of our local youth choose not to use alcohol, ni****ne, or other drugs. While it's important to recognize these positive choices, parents and caregivers continue to play one of the biggest roles in helping young people make healthy decisions.

Research shows that when parents set clear expectations, have regular conversations about substance use, and stay involved in their child's life, youth are even more likely to make safe and healthy choices.

Not sure how to start the conversation? You're not alone! Free resources like SAMHSA's Talk. They Hear You.® campaign offer practical tips and conversation starters to help make discussions about alcohol, va**ng, and other substances feel more natural.

Remember-your conversations matter, and your child is listening.
