As you may know SAMHSA's Center for Substance Abuse Treatment sponsors
monthly web events leading up to the official celebration of National
Alcohol and Drug Addiction Recovery Month every September. The events for
June will focus on the community's role in recovery and I thought you might
want to tune in.
