| | Congress Goes Purple for National Recovery Month
| In honor of National Recovery Month, Representative David Trone (D-MD) organized a bipartisan awareness effort to recognize National Recovery Month in Congress.
Legislators held virtual and in-person events throughout September to elevate voices in recovery and held a Congressional Day of Action on September 16, where legislators lead the "Congress Goes Purple" initiative.
This initiative included legislators wearing purple in honor of National Recovery Month and taking to Twitter on September 16 to raise awareness on addiction and recovery. Representative Trone, along with eight other members of the House and Senate, created and shared a short video on social media to raise awareness, fight stigma, support recovery, and #EndTheAddictionCrisis.

If you would like to include your loved one and fellow addiction professional to our in memoriam, please send the name, credentials, state of practice, picture of your loved one and/or colleague who has passed away to ccorbett@naadac.org.

Medical, nursing, dental, and mental/behavioral health clinicians and trainees are invited to attend and learn about the hundreds of opportunities currently available in the behavioral health field.
During the fair, you will be able to talk with healthcare site representatives for about 15 minutes inside "virtual breakout rooms" to discuss their site, the communities they serve, and their current available positions. Before the fair, complete a clinician profile on the Health Workforce Connector so that interested healthcare sites can follow-up with you after the event.
