In May 2017, the Lynnfield Select Board approved the formation of a committee to address the misuse of substances. In an effort to promote a healthier and safer community, and in response to the rising misuse of opioids, the Town of Lynnfield formed The Lynnfield Substance Abuse Prevention Coalition, known as A Healthy Lynnfield (AHL).
Today, A Healthy Lynnfield is a partnership between the Town of Lynnfield and a community-based 501(c)(3) working hard to prevent substance misuse and to ensure those impacted have the help they need.
