January is Substance Use Disorder (SUD) Treatment Month. In 2024, nearly 1 in 6 people in the U.S. experienced a substance use disorder. SUD is a treatable health condition, and effective, evidence-based care is available.
This month is about increasing awareness, reducing stigma, and making support easier to find. If you or someone you care about needs help:
- Call or text 988 for immediate, confidential support

Treatment works. Access matters.
