September’s Two Observances Are Counting the Same People

Recovery Month and Suicide Prevention Awareness Month both fall in September. One focuses on people who struggle with addiction, and the other focuses on people we have lost to suicide and those still at risk. In most communities, they run on parallel tracks. The recovery rally and the suicide prevention walk rarely share a stage, and the people planning them don’t often sit in the same meetings.
