National Alcohol & Drug Addiction Recovery Month - September 2009

Voices for Recovery

Across the country, people in recovery are celebrating their successes and sharing them with others in an effort to educate the public about treatment, how it works, for whom, and why. Because these successes often go unnoticed by the broader population, Voices for Recovery provides a vehicle for people to share their recovery stories.

You can view others' stories and share your recovery story to help others see that recovery is possible on the Recovery Month Web site.

We will post your story along with your first name, last name, city, State, or email address, if you choose to provide this information. If you prefer to remain anonymous, only provide your State and your story.
