Recovery Month Banner

Join Great Plains Quality Innovation Network and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) as we recognize National Recovery Month!

In September, we aim to increase awareness of recovery and to celebrate the millions of people who identify as being in recovery, their families and caregivers, and the peer workers and recovery organizations that make recovery from mental health and substance use conditions is possible.

Hope is real. Recovery is real.

Help spread the word that people can and do recover, by using the resources in the new National Recovery Awareness Month Toolkit. The toolkit includes:

  • Key Messages and Weekly Themes to provide a foundation for developing recovery messages that resonate with your specific audiences.
  • Social Media Shareables, including social media posts, static graphics, and animations that can be customized or shared across platforms.
  • Hashtag Recommendations, including #RecoveryMonth#NationalRecoveryMonth2023#RecoveryIsPossible, and #Recovery4ALL (among others) to promote National Recovery Month activities on social media platforms.
  • Digital Stickers to promote Recovery Month on Instagram and Facebook Stories.
  • Social Media Profile Frames to enhance to your Instagram and Facebook profile picture.
  • Email Signatures to promote recovery awareness in all email communications.
  • Virtual Meeting Backgrounds to customize and use during your virtual meetings.
  • Resources for behavioral health professionals, community members and families to obtain additional information and training about recovery.

Check out what SAMHSA is doing, share these materials, and stay tuned for more! Remember that we all play active roles supporting and promoting #Recovery4ALL.
