Attention Treatment Providers!

As you may know, the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services (DMHAS), in

collaboration with Shatterproof, a national non-profit, is rolling out Treatment Atlas,

www.TreatmentAtlas.org, in Connecticut this fall.

This free, multi-state, web-based platform will help ensure that Connecticut residents and their

loved ones that need help for Substance Use Disorder can quickly and easily access treatment

resources and information that meets their individual needs. DMHAS is partnering with

Shatterproof to collect data from Connecticut’s licensed drug and alcohol treatment providers to

be included in the Atlas platform.

We would like to remind you that the open enrollment period for Treatment Atlas for Connecticut

addiction treatment facilities will be closing on June 30th, 2023, and we encourage your

participation!

If you have not received information about enrolling, please contact Angad Buttar Atlas Senior

Director, at AButtar@shatterproof.org or (860) 214-749.
