YPR,

September is here, and with it comes one of the most meaningful moments on our calendar. National Recovery Month.

This is the month where the work you do every day gets to shine a little brighter. Recovery Month is an opportunity to amplify your chapter’s presence, deepen the connections you’ve already built, and remind your communities that recovery is real, recovery is possible, and recovery is worth celebrating. Whether you’re planning a community event, partnering with local organizations, sharing recovery stories, or simply making sure your chapter is visible and active this month; every effort counts.

As you step into September, we encourage you to be intentional. Think about how your chapter wants to show up, who you want to reach, and what recovery looks like in your community. The people who need to see your chapter this month may not know you exist yet, and that is exactly why this work matters.

We are so proud of each of you and the communities you continue to build. Recovery Month belongs to all of us. Let’s make the most of it.

Thank you for everything you do.

Let’s celebrate, together.

– Chelsea
