Milton-Galway Community Coalition Forms to Address Area Substance Misuse
ROCK CITY FALLS —In response to the high rate of area substance use and multiple fatal overdoses, a new coalition has formed in the Milton-Galway area.
Titled the Milton-Galway Community Coalition (MGCC), the coalition meets every first Monday of the month from 5-6 p.m. at the Rock City Falls Firehouse, located at 119 Rock City Road. The next meeting is Monday, Dec. 5.
The group is open to all who have an interest in reducing substance misuse and improving the overall quality of life in the community. The coalition is planning to apply for Drug Free Communities (DFC) funding in the spring
The group says concern prompted the community to take action by organizing and beginning the development of programs and prevention resources directed towards the community to reduce addiction, substance misuse and risky behavior.
