NADCP is honored to participate in National Recovery Month, held every September to educate people about how substance use and mental health services can enable individuals and their families to live healthy and rewarding lives. This observance celebrates the millions of people in recovery from mental health and substance use issues. It reminds us that behavioral health is an essential component to overall health. All month long, we’re celebrating the fact that prevention works, treatment is effective, and people can and do recover.
We hope you’ll join some of our Recovery Month activities this month!
