 is the third in a series of substance use issue briefs produced by the Barnstable County Department of Human Services for the Regional Substance Abuse Council.

Barnstable County Regional Substance Abuse Council (RSAC) established a communication infrastructure across towns, providers, organizations, and individuals on Cape Cod to identify and address regional gaps and disparities in the substance use service provider system, maximize inter-agency collaboration and maximize funding and resource opportunities.  RSAC strives for a coordinated and comprehensive regional approach to substance use across the continuum of prevention, treatment, intervention, and recovery.
