WASHINGTON — U.S. Senator Maggie Hassan (D-NH), Ranking Member of the Senate Finance Subcommittee on Health Care, launched on Dec. 2 a community survey to learn more about the experiences that Granite Staters have had with methadone clinics in New Hampshire. The survey asks Granite Staters who have received treatment at a methadone clinic or have worked at one to anonymously share their experiences. The confidential responses will inform Sen. Hassan’s work to expand access to medication-assisted treatment for opioid use disorder.

“As the fentanyl crisis continues to devastate families and communities across New Hampshire, people need to be able to get the life-saving addiction treatment that is right for them,” said Hassan. “If you or a loved one have received treatment from or worked at a methadone clinic, I would love to hear from you. By completing the survey, you can convey your experiences and support our work to connect Granite Staters to the treatment that they need.”
