The Substance Use Disorder Treatment and Prevention Workgroup of the Human Service Collaborative Body invites community members to celebrate National Recovery Month throughout September. Recovery Month aims to increase public awareness surrounding mental health and addiction recovery while celebrating the strong and proud recovery community.
Addiction has affected many individuals and families in our community. According to the Michigan Opioid Task Force Report, Livingston County is one of the Top 10 counties in Michigan with the highest fatal opioid overdose rates (2019).
To bring this celebration to Livingston County, and in preparation for recovery month, the Substance Use Disorders Treatment, Prevention and Recovery Workgroup is seeking a unique T-shirt design that highlights prevention or recovery.
