Bill > HCR203

This concurrent resolution, H.C.R.203, designates February 2026 as Recovery Awareness Month in Vermont to highlight the state's significant challenges with substance abuse, including illicit drug and alcohol use, particularly among youth. It acknowledges the crucial work of the Vermont Association for Mental Health and Addiction Recovery (VAMHAR), a nonprofit dedicated to supporting individuals through substance abuse challenges, and Recovery Partners of Vermont, an organization of peer-led recovery centers and residences that directly assist those on their journey to recovery. The resolution emphasizes the importance of collaboration between these organizations, state agencies, community partners, employers, and individuals with lived experience to create coordinated pathways to recovery, and it directs the Secretary of State to send copies of this resolution to VAMHAR and Recovery Partners of Vermont to further promote awareness of these vital efforts.
