Understanding Co-Occurring Disorders

Co-occurring disorders (COD) is a combination of substance use and mental disorders. Clients with co-occurring disorders have one or more disorders relating to the use of alcohol and/or other drugs as well as one or more mental disorders.

A diagnosis of co-occurring disorders occurs when at least one disorder of each type can be established independent of the other.

Greater Bridgeport Area:

Join us, and hundreds of volunteers across the state of Connecticut, in making a difference in the lives of homeless men, women, and children throughout Connecticut by taking part in the nation’s annual count of people experiencing homelessness. The Point-In-Time (PIT) Count is conducted each year in January.
There are thousands of individuals and families in shelter at any time, and hundreds more living without shelter in Connecticut. Only by knowing who, where and how many people are experiencing homelessness in Connecticut can we plan and identify the resources needed to best serve the most vulnerable and ultimately move families and individuals into permanent housing.
