Oneida County Opioid Task Force
Initially formed in 2016 by Oneida County Executive, Anthony J. Picente, Jr., and subsequently restructured in 2019, the Oneida County Opioid Task Force is a cross-sector coalition of community stakeholders focused on eradicating the opioid epidemic and addressing substance/drug use in Oneida County.
The Task Force is co-chaired by Oneida County Executive, Anthony J. Picente, Jr., Oneida County Sheriff, Robert M. Maciol and Oneida County District Attorney, Scott D. McNamara. The 2019 restructuring combined the efforts of both the Oneida County Health Department (OCHD) and Oneida County Department of Mental Health (OCDMH).
