National Recovery Month is right now – September! This critical, annual awareness effort started way back in 1989. While it is a national observance held every September, the more important point is to promote addiction treatment solutions. There are new evidence-based treatment and recovery practices out there that a lot of the population is not aware of and it is so important that this information is spread across all population lines. While we are all know the pain and suffering that addiction inflicts on us, regardless of skin color, socio-economic level or religion, the successful solutions are harder to fine.

Let us join together and share solutions to one of the deadliest diseases in this country.

There are a number of events across the country. Here is a list:
