Commissioner John Auerbach joined staff and others on October 7, 2008, for the opening of the new Southeast Regional Health Office at 1736 Purchase Street in New Bedford. The event also provided an opportunity for Southeast Regional Public Health providers to hold a meeting of SYNERGY, an effort to improve communication, efficiency and overall capacity among CHNAs, local boards of health, emergency preparedness efforts, and the Southeast Center for Healthy Communities. New Bedford Mayor Scott Lang was on hand to welcome DPH to the City. Guests for the opening event included the health directors for both Fall River and New Bedford as well as a number of agency directors, including Nancy Paull, Executive Director of Stanley Street Treatment and Resources (SSTAR) in Fall River.
