Far below normal precipitation has caused a drought and increased fire danger levels. All of Connecticut is currently in a Stage 2 Drought Advisory. Residents are encouraged to be mindful of water consumption and use extra caution to prevent fires. An emergency burn ban remains in effect at all state parks, forests, and wildlife management areas, prohibiting the use of all outdoor grills, firepits, campfires, etc.

Residential Care Home Resident Rights

As a resident of a Residential Care Home (RCH), you have protections and rights under state law. These rights related to your quality of life in an RCH, your money/finances, your healthcare, your room, and more. We have prepared a new guidebook with brief explanations of these rights. For Further Reading See C.G.S. 19a-550.
