This place, by the grace of God, saved my life and my soul. Not only mine but my father's as well. My dad and I were addicted to drugs, eventually homeless. Teen Challenge took us in, taught us how to overcome the flesh by standing on the Word of Christ Jesus and today we are free. They helped me get my GED, exonerate my legal charges, become a man, and enroll in College. Thank God this place was here when I knew nowhere else to turn! All who desire freedom should come to TCCT and submit to the program; and what God has done for my dad and I, He will do for anyone!!
Bloomfield, CT is a medium-sized suburb of Connecticut’s Hartford County, with a population of around 21,128.1 Here, residents experience a more dense suburban feel, with plenty of parks and things to do, which attract primarily young professionals, families, and retirees to the community.1
Of course, Bloomfield is also one of the many suburbs of America facing an ongoing battle with substance misuse. The use of opioids for recreational purposes is especially increasing throughout Hartford County as well as the rest of Connecticut.2 In 2018, approximately 25% of all the emergency information calls to 211 were for substance use disorder and mental health resources, with calls for housing and shelter exceeding that number by just 3%.2
As for emergency department visits, alcohol is the leading cause throughout the state, while opioids are the second leading cause.2 By 2019, the number of overdose-related deaths due to opioid misuse reached 1,202.3 In 2021, the opioid-related death number increased to 1,361, with fentanyl being the primary cause.3
Fentanyl has even become a deadly issue for those without substance use disorders in Bloomfield and Hartford County. Earlier in the year, a 16-year-old student of Bloomfield High School was reported to have suffered from a substance overdose while in school.4 That substance was marijuana laced with fentanyl.4
Fentanyl can be found in the form of pills, powder, and even liquid. It’s both tasteless, odorless, and colorless, which means it can make its way—and often does—into all kinds of illicit substances out there. This makes it an incredibly dangerous time to have a substance use disorder or to use substances recreationally.
For anyone experiencing a substance use disorder, it is essential that they receive treatment from a licensed facility to prevent an overdose from occurring. It’s especially important if their substance of choice is opioids.
Fortunately, there are 95 treatment facilities within a 25-mile radius of Bloomfield, Connecticut, which means there are plenty of options.5
Here’s what those options look like:5
If you look approximately 100 miles beyond Bloomfield, you’ll find 1,080 treatment facilities.5 Of those 1,080 facilities, 784 offer outpatient treatment, 295 offer residential treatment, and 465 offer interim care.5
It’s important to understand the type of treatment you need, what your options are, and where they are. While 295 residential treatment facilities sound like plenty, not all will offer the type of treatment you may need, and not all will have space available. That’s why it’s a good idea to get a proper evaluation by a medical professional who can make recommendations for treatment programs and facilities that will best suit your needs.
For those with substance use disorders, peer support meetings, such as Narcotics Anonymous (NA) and Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), are usually a mandatory part of treatment and aftercare. These group meetings are incredibly helpful as they offer peer support and mentorship that can help those struggling to cope with their substance use disorders.
You can find the most current NA and AA meeting schedules in or near Bloomfield using the following resources:
It’s important to understand that while these group meetings are essential to recovery, they are in no way a viable substitute for professional treatment from a licensed facility for substance use disorders.
