Individuals, families, and entire communities across the Nation unite under the theme, "Join the Voices of Recovery: Real People, Real Recovery." This program will showcase Recovery Month community forums, music-based activities, walks and runs for recovery, Major League Baseball games, and other uplifting events intended to raise awareness of recovery and increase accessibility to treatment.
