As the new year is just days away MCRA wants to help bring awareness that January is observed as,

SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER TREATMENT MONTH which serves to support:

• People contemplating or seeking help for their substance use
• Practitioners treating or considering treating substance use disorder
• Friends, family, and loved ones of those with substance use conditions

By raising awareness of treatment options—including medications used to treat substance use disorders—SAMHSA seeks to:

• Eliminate stigma surrounding treatment, including medications used to treat substance use disorders
• Encourage individuals on their treatment and recovery journey
• Promote best practices such as screening, intervention, and treatment of substance use disorders by health care providers

Wonderful advice from the Iron County Health Coalition!

Time to rest and recharge - and be gentle with yourself. ❄️

The Day After Christmas

If today feels quieter… heavier… or just different — that’s normal.

After all the buildup, emotions can settle in unexpected ways.
You might feel tired, overwhelmed, relieved, lonely, or a mix of everything.

Today is your reminder:
• You don’t need to “bounce back”
• You don’t need to numb how you feel
• You don’t need to have it all figured out

Healthy coping looks like resting, breathing, moving your body, hydrating, checking in with someone you trust, and giving yourself grace.

The holidays don’t define your progress.
How you care for yourself after them matters just as much.

Be gentle today.
Small, healthy choices still count. 🤍

That’s the number of people that we’ve directly worked with in the last 4 years, the vast majority from our own community. So many transformed lives - children that have their parents back, families that have their loved ones, employers that have hard working and reliable employees, our community has responsible citizens that are giving back, and so many that lived the majority of their lives without hope, have hope.

Today we’re immensely grateful for those that made, and kept, a commitment to help and support the beautiful and resilient people we have the privilege to work with every day. Those commitments have had more positive effects than any of us could have dared hope for.
