In concluding remarks, WFAD President Amy Ronshausen noted, "Let us make every month recovery month. Let us celebrate recovery and inspire others every day. Let us engage the recovery community in policy reform. Do not let your stories of hope end this month, continue to spread that message and be the light in a world that for many seem very dark at times. Remind them that recovery is real and attainable."
