Educational Reference Groups (ERGs)

Educational Reference Groups (ERGs) are a classification of public school districts into groups based on similar socioeconomic status and need. The ERG system was developed by the Connecticut Department of Education. Appropriate ERG data from the reports listed below may be used as an approximate level of substance use in your particular community because the ERG classification system groups similar communities like yours together with other similar communities.  For a listing of communities in each ERG click here.
