This September, we’re teaming up with #OhioMHAS and #RecoveryOhio to celebrate National Recovery Month! Since 1989, this month has been dedicated to supporting new treatments, celebrating the recovery community, and recognizing those who make recovery possible. With the right treatment, support, and resources, recovery is REAL (Restoring Every Aspect of Life) for everyone. #NationalRecoveryMonth #RecoveryIsPossible.
