The Community Supports for Young People Workgroup’s is co-sponsored by the Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) and the Communities That Care Coalition (CTC). The CHIP goal for this group is to support and strengthen the Communities That Care Coalition in its efforts to delay the age at first use of addictive substances for all youth, with a particular focus on those disproportionately affected, including LGBTQ youth, youth of color, youth from families with low incomes and DCF-involved youth.
