Colleen Violette, representing the Department of Public Health’s Office of Firearm Injury Prevention, told the commission that DPH released a press release naming six cohort‑3 grantees for the office’s grant program.
"A press release was released by DPH yesterday, announcing the 6 grantees for our cohort 3," Violette said, and she listed the grantees as the cities of Bridgeport, Hartford, New Haven, Stamford, Waterbury and Lehi Light Health District.
