Recovery is for Every Person, Every Family, Every Community

National Recovery Month celebrates the nation’s strong and proud recovery community and the gains made by those in recovery. The goal is to spread the positive message that behavioral health is essential to overall health, prevention works, treatment is effective, and people can and do recover.

The Haven wants to join our colleagues and fellow service providers in educating the public about recovery, how it works, for whom, and why. We know that the road to recovery can be difficult, but the benefits of preventing and overcoming substance use disorders are significant and valuable not just to individuals, but to families and communities as well. As the White House states in its National Recovery Month proclamation, “When our fellow Americans recover from substance use disorder, our Nation becomes stronger and more resilient.”
