CMHA works closely with our local law enforcement officials to better care for our clients and community. After the tragic loss of Bristol Police Officers Hamzy and DeMonte in October 2022, CMHA staff took the initiative to go "Blue for Bristol" in support of the Bristol Police Heroes Fund. CMHA pledged to match every donation made by staff, and when CMHA recently visited the Bristol Police Department, we were able to present Chief Brian Gould with our $2,500 donation.

"Thank you" to the entire Bristol Police Dept. team for all you do every day, and we look forward to further supporting the Bristol community with you.
