The Healthy Peabody Collaborative (HPC) was formed in March 2008 under Mayor
Michael J. Bonfanti to address substance abuse issues in the City of Peabody. Our
members are working to reduce underage substance use in the City of Peabody while
creating a healthier community for all who live, work and play in Peabody. Since the
inception of the Healthy Peabody Collaborative, we have broadened our mission to
promote all healthy behaviors, including a focus on bullying and hunger prevention. The
Healthy Peabody Collaborative also worked with the Peabody Social Service Committee
to provide pro-bono professional services to the residents of Peabody. This was
accomplished by expanding the Lynn Time Exchange to include the North Shore, and
specifically Peabody. By expanding our focus, we are building coalition membership,
helping member organizations to purposefully include substance abuse prevention in their
mission and institutionalizing the Healthy Peabody Collaborative into the fabric of
Peabody.
