Dear Friends and Colleagues,

In observance of National Recovery Awareness Month, we are delighted to unveil our special mini edition for September 2023 at RecoveryView.

Throughout September, National Recovery Month serves as a reminder that access to substance use treatment and mental health services empowers individuals with mental and/or substance use disorders to lead fulfilling lives.

With more than two decades dedicated to the recovery field, it has been my privilege to foster unity within this community for the past 13 years through RecoveryView. This edition, we join together in celebrating the gifts of recovery.
