What happened
On June 10, 2025, Operation PAR, Inc. detected unauthorized access to its network. The organization worked with outside cybersecurity specialists, who determined that files were accessed or removed between June 6 and June 10, 2025. Operation PAR is a non-profit founded in 1970 and headquartered in Pinellas Park, Florida, providing addiction treatment and recovery services.
A detailed review of the affected files concluded on June 10, 2026, roughly a year after the incident was discovered. That review found that the files contained personal information for 375 Massachusetts residents. Operation PAR reported the incident to the Massachusetts Office of the Attorney General in June 2026 and began notifying affected individuals. According to the notice, the information involved was limited to first and last names, and the organization is offering complimentary credit monitoring through Epiq.
Because Operation PAR provides behavioral health and addiction recovery services, individuals who receive a notice may have concerns beyond the specific data listed. Dapeer Law is evaluating whether the roughly twelve-month gap between discovery and notification, and the circumstances of the incident, may support claims on behalf of those affected.
