Stoneham Coalition for a Safe and Healthy Community
About
The Stoneham Coalition for a Safe and Healthy Community is a local organization that supports substance use prevention, intervention, treatment and recovery. Its vision is a safe and healthy town that embraces every stage of that work. The coalition also points residents to the Massachusetts Behavioral Health Help Line, a statewide service that connects individuals and families to mental health and substance use treatment, including outpatient, urgent and immediate crisis care.
A key program is the Sober Living Scholarship, offered in partnership with the Stoneham Board of Health. It helps people who have finished a 30-day recovery treatment program cover the cost of continuing in a sober living home. The fund is supported by individual donors, coalition fundraising and opioid abatement funds, and applicants must show verifiable ties to Stoneham, such as past residency, family or work history.
