Falmouth Substance Use Commission approves prior minutes, defers major grant solicitation to 2027. Chair Dennis Lyons reported $558,000 remaining in the Opioid Settlement Fund and announced that a MOSAIC technical advisor will join future meetings to manage contracts and data analysis. State Representative Thomas Moakley urged stronger collaboration with the Falmouth Recovery Court and noted federal funding constraints across the Commonwealth.
The Commission identified gaps in business community involvement, public Narcan access, and transportation support for recovery-related employment and job interviews, with members suggesting a potential town mandate for Naloxone boxes in public restrooms and future collaboration with the Regional Transit Authority.
