Liberation Programs was created in 1999 after the merger of three established Fairfield County, Conn., alcohol and drug abuse agencies. Liberation Programs, Meridian Council and Guenster Rehabilitation Services had provided substance abuse prevention and treatment programs for almost three decades. The strong partnership between the community and Liberation Programs began in 1971 when a study confirmed the existence and extent of local drug abuse and the proven need for community-based treatment. Local corporations and city government leaders of the Connecticut cities of Stamford, Darien, Greenwich and New Canaan committed to financially support a program to address the problem of substance abuse. Liberation Programs is the largest addiction treatment and prevention organization in Fairfield County and reaches 15,000 people annually. Its mission is to build healthier communities through programs that prevent substance abuse, empower persons with drug and alcohol dependency to achieve sustained recovery and support the loved ones of those struggling with addiction.
