National Recovery Awareness Month
National Recovery Month, held every September, is a nationwide observance that promotes awareness and understanding of mental health and substance use recovery. It celebrates the progress of those in recovery, highlights the benefits of prevention and treatment, and supports those still on their journey.
In BC there are several residential treatment centres and an outpatient centre, funded through the National Native Alcohol and Drug Abuse Program (NNADAP).
Services are offered to men, women, youth (in one centre) and families.
Services offered at treatment facilities vary, but overall include services to clients with physical disabilities or concurrent disorders, to clients on OAT (opioid agonist therapy) or psychoactive medications. Services also include family treatment, couples counselling and services for pregnant women.
