MONTGOMERY, Ala. – The Alabama Department of Mental Health and community partners are proud to join the national celebration of Recovery Month this September. This observance honors the strength and resilience of individuals in recovery.
Recovery Month aims to raise awareness about mental illness and substance use disorders, celebrate the achievements of those in recovery and share the message that recovery is possible for everyone. Throughout the month, ADMH and local communities will unite to promote awareness, share success stories and support those on their recovery journey, with a focus on reducing stigma and ensuring that compassionate care, effective treatment and ongoing support are accessible to all who need them.
“Recovery Month is an opportunity to uplift those who have overcome significant challenges and remind everyone that recovery is possible,” said ADMH Commissioner Kimberly Boswell. “We want to share the message that help is available and no one is alone in their journey.”
The Alabama Department of Mental Health emphasizes the importance of comprehensive recovery support services. Recognizing that each individual’s recovery journey is unique, the Alabama Department of Mental Health is deeply committed to offering a comprehensive range of prevention, treatment and support services through the network of local providers.
By prioritizing compassionate care, effective treatment, and continuous support, ADMH strives to enhance access to vital services. If you are in need of help, the Alabama Department of Public Health, VitAL Alabama and ADMH offer the 988 Lifeline, Connect Alabama, a behavioral health finder app providing instant access to education and information, among other services.
The Alabama Department of Mental Health invites everyone in the community to join in celebrating Recovery Month. Together, we can help break stigma and promote a message of hope, resilience and recovery.
