There are plenty of cool websites for folks looking to hook up with other people who have places for you to dry camp for a night or two, unless you live in my area of CT. How do you find folks who...

The problem with Connecticut (at least in the Hartford area) is that we just don't have any space. Heck, we can hardly park in our own driveway...not because of ordinances or anything like that, but because of the congested neighborhood and narrow streets. I think you'd have better luck with a class B - I see a Pleasure Way around town a lot. Sometimes along the river front park in Hartford, sometimes at the Walmart or Sam's parking lot in Manchester, but I'm not sure where they're spending the night. I think Cabela's in East Hartford allows overnights, they at least have a dump station there (but no fresh water for refilling and it is $5 to dump now). Walmart in Manchester doesn't look to allow RVs, but that class B seems to go stealthy. I have seen a couple of larger RV's at the back corner of the Sam's parking lot in Manchester every now and again.
My parents were hosts at the COE Campground out in West Thompson for the last two years (they're off to other adventures this year), it is a nice clean and quiet little park and reasonable site fee for electric and water hookups, but not free. Also, you do need to reserve the hookup sites since it is small to begin with and only half of the sites have them. Not sure where in CT you need to be close to, though...that could be way out of your way.
