This year we’re excited to have partnered with Mobilize Recovery. Recovery Happens emphasizes that individuals in recovery and their support systems can be change agents in our communities, ensuring a stronger recovery capital. It is critical that people experiencing substance use receive the support they need. The reality is that substance use recovery is essential to overall health, prevention does work, treatment is effective, and people do recover.”
