This month CHC was pleased to welcome a delegation of leaders in public health representing eight countries organized by the Vermont Council on World Affairs. The group visited our Riverside location for a conversation about CHC’s role in protecting public health and learned about best practices in managing the threat of fentanyl and other synthetic opioids. CHC’s Chief Medical Officer Adam Greenlee and Besty Fowler, CHC’s Director of Mental Health and Substance Use Services hosted the group which included clinicians, public health workers, and law enforcement from four continents. CHC staff shared information about CHC’s range of services and many community collaborations. The group included representatives from Cambodia, Liberia, Lithuania, Pakistan, Peru, South Korea, Ukraine, and Uruguay. The group visited Vermont from October 9-October 15 through the US Department of State’s International Visitor Leadership Program.
