Recovery Month
Recovery Month celebrates the millions of people who have changed their lives through recovery and recognizes that recovery is possible for everyone. Each September, we recognize individual recovery journeys and educate people that the right treatment and support can help those with mental health conditions and substance use disorders live healthy, meaningful lives.
Key messages from SAMHSA this year include:
- It is OK to reach out for help with substance use and mental health conditions.
- Creating safe, affordable housing for all with mental health and substance use conditions supports their recovery.
- Purpose may include a job, school, volunteering, caregiving, or creative pursuits.
- Recovery is supported through meaningful relationships.
- Recovery Resources from Community Care
- Recovery Stories from Community Care members
- Recovery Works! song written in honor of Recovery Month
