Voices for Recovery


Meredith (03/04/2011)

It works, it really does!  I didn't think I could live with or without drugs and alcohol, and I have now been sober over 15 years!  Working the steps of AA with a sponsor helped me recover from what seemed like a hopeless state of mind and body.



Recovery Month promotes the societal benefits of prevention, treatment, and recovery for substance use and mental disorders, celebrates people in recovery, lauds the contributions of treatment and service providers, and promotes the message that recovery in all its forms is possible. Recovery Month spreads the positive message that behavioral health is essential to overall health, that prevention works, treatment is effective and people can and do recover.
