National Recovery Month 2022

National Recovery Month

Recovery Month is a time for us to raise our voices for recovery, deepen our understanding of it and celebrate the incredible gains made by so many across the country.

With its tagline, “Recovery is For Everyone: Every Person. Every Family. Every Community.” Recovery Month reminds us that no one is alone on their recovery journey. We are all in this together.

To help you recognize this important observance – and bring awareness to all-things recovery – we compiled a variety of tools, resources and learning opportunities.

September 4-10 is National Suicide Prevention Week, and September is also Suicide Prevention Awareness Month. Here are a few resources:

  • If you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health crisis, call or text 988 immediately.
  • If you are uncomfortable texting or talking by phone, chat with the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline at 988lifeline.org. The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is a national network of local crisis centers that provides free and confidential emotional support to people in suicidal crisis or emotional distress 24 hours a day, 7 days a week in the U.S.
