What’s Next for Wellesley?

March 23, 2026 by admin

From the Wellesley Health Department:

The Town of Wellesley has been the recipient of Opioid Abatement Funds and expects to continue to receive funds through 2038. To use these funds responsibly, we have solicited feedback from a wide cohort of community stakeholders. The results of that feedback will be used to direct Health Department programming overall as well as the use of Opioid Abatement Funds.

On behalf of the Wellesley Health Department, we would like to invite you to a community forum on March 23, 6-7 PM at the Wellesley Police station (485 Washington St.) to discuss the results of our recent Community Health Needs Assessment, and how we can best use these results to plan for Opioid Abatement Fund Spending. Please see flyer for full event details. The event is free and open to all.

The full report and related documents are linked below: 

  • Introduction and Executive Summary from the Board of Health.

  • Quick Data Summary Flipbook
  • Data Dashboard

We value resident input and encourage you to share your thoughts, questions, and perspectives as the Town considers next steps. 

Share your thoughts and provide feedback, or call us at 781-489-4407. You can also email us at health@wellesley.ma.gov.
