Prevention Council Chair Gary Waugh Receives Award
The Western Connecticut Coalition of Prevention Councils presented the Earl Bailey Community Asset Builder Award to Litchfield Prevention Council Chair Gary Waugh at its meeting in September.
The award recognizes Gary and his colleagues on the Prevention Council for their efforts to build a proactive mental health community in Greater Litchfield. It celebrates bringing people and community resources together to facilitate programs that support healthy lifestyles for all of Litchfield’s citizens.
The Litchfield Prevention Council has offered programs on Internet Safety with State Trooper Scott Driscoll, Natural Highs with psychologist Matt Bellace, the Choose Love Movement with Sandy Hook parent Scarlett Lewis, the Free Hugs Project with activist Ken Nwadlke, Jr., and NARCAN Training at the Litchfield Historical Society.
