The Council on Criminal Justice and Behavioral Health (CCJBH) celebrated Recovery Awareness Month by holding a variety of educational webinars to honor individuals who are in recovery and the families who provide support.
On September 15th, CCJBH hosted a webinar that featured a presentation by the Department of Health Care Services on youth recovery programs, as well as the Drug Medi-Cal Organized Delivery System. In addition, members of the Anti-Recidivism Coalition who were formerly justice-system involved shared their perspectives to highlight successes and challenges for serving this vulnerable population.
Please note that free, confidential help is available 24 hours a day through SAMHSA’s National Helpline, 1-800-662-HELP (4357) or 1-800-487-4889 (TDD). Offering support to those experiencing substance use disorders can make a huge difference in their lives. Together we can help others realize the promise of recovery and give families the right support to help their loved ones.
