What is the Mayor’s Opioid Task Force (MOTF)?
MOTF is diverse group of committed individuals led by Mayor Jim Donchess of Nashua, who have a passion and vision to create change and make an impact on the current opioid problem in Nashua and beyond. We expect to achieve success in our efforts by working collaboratively using an approach that incorporates a shared vision, a common agenda, a shared system of measurement, mutually reinforcing activities, and continuous communication. The backbone of support for the MOTF will be the City of Nashua, through the Office of the Mayor and the Division of Public Health and Community Services. This model, referred to as a “collective impact” model, uses a community-wide approach to tackle the difficult health issue of opioid addiction that plagues our communities.
