National Drug and Alcohol Addiction Recovery Month Ends

Drug Rehab Celebrates Recovery

National Drug and Alcohol Addiction Recovery Month ends, and Narconon Drug Rehab in Georgia acknowledges efforts made by many to help others become clean and sober.


Mary Rieser, Executive Director of Narconon Drug Rehab in Georgia, stated: “As National Drug and Alcohol Addiction Recovery Month is ending, we pay tribute to those who brought the message of effective drug prevention and workable treatment to their communities. 

“Above all, we salute those who had the courage to begin or continue their drug or alcohol treatment and extend our good wishes for complete recovery.

“Around the world this month, community events and lectures brought home the fact that addiction can be prevented or alleviated.  For once, through combined efforts, perhaps the voices promoting a drug free life were louder than the social climates or advertisements that entice with the allure of complete medicinal solutions for every problem.

Narconon Drug Rehab in Georgia set up a booth at a large county fair for two weeks.  Kids were given a toy after reading, agreeing to and signing a drug free pledge.  Every parent was happily involved in making sure their child understood what they were signing.

“Others came to the staff and volunteers in the booth seeking help for addiction, either for themselves or a family member.  The booth was busy the entire time, making clear the fact that addiction in indeed a wide spread problem and people are eager for solution.  It was also quite evident that people often do not know where to go for solutions.

“Studies have shown that parents who educate their children on the dangers of drug addiction have a happy drug free family. We want to help all to avoid the problems associated with addiction and drug abuse. The kids sign a pledge that they will be drug-free. The parents have been very enthusiastic about this."


“Every month is recovery month at Narconon of Georgia and we are here to service.  Please let us know if someone you know needs drug treatment.”

We have a 76% success rate – Narconon is the New Life Program.
