RecoveryNowTV Applauds Everyone in Recovery and the People that Help Them
Recovery Month is an annual observance that takes place during the month of September to bring attention to the societal benefits of substance abuse treatment. This year’s theme is Join the Voices for Recovery: Now More Than Ever! At RecoveryNowTV we’d like to add our voice and applaud all the people that are in recovery and the contributions of the treatment providers that help make recovery possible. This year’s theme emphasizes the high level of stress many people are under and how this can contribute to alcohol or drug addiction or relapse.
Now is the time for those who need help to seek treatment and to lesson the stigma associated with the disease through education and awareness. Besides being a platform to celebrate people in recovery this month serves to educate the public on substance abuse as a national health crisis and that recovery IS possible and addiction IS a treatable disease. Recovery month also demonstrates benefits for society as a whole when an affected individual receives the treatment they need. Family, friends, coworkers all benefit when those who need help seek treatment.
