September is Recovery Month

National recovery
The Bureau of Drug and Alcohol Services recognizes and celebrates the gains made by those in recovery every day, but September holds special significance. This month we celebrate Recovery Month, a national event intended to educate Americans that substance use treatment and mental health services can enable those with a mental and/or substance use disorder to live a healthy and rewarding life. Visit Partnership for a Drug-Free New Hampshire for more information.
