National Recovery Month, observed annually in September, is dedicated to promoting and advancing new evidence-based treatments for individuals grappling with addiction. This month not only highlights the importance of effective recovery practices but also the critical role of a robust recovery community and the dedicated service providers who support those on their journey to recovery.

In recognition of National Recovery Month, Fulton County held a special presentation at the Board of Commissioners Meeting on September 4. During this meeting, a proclamation was presented to honor and acknowledge the significance of this observance. The proclamation celebrated the progress made in the field of addiction recovery, the contributions of those working in the recovery community, and the ongoing need for comprehensive support and resources for individuals in recovery.

This official recognition was aimed to bolster community awareness and reaffirm the county's commitment to supporting recovery efforts.
