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.
