Celebrating National Addiction Professionals Day: Thank You for Making a Difference

On September 20, we recognize and honor the dedicated addiction professionals who work tirelessly to improve the lives of those battling substance use disorders. Your work within correctional facilities and beyond is nothing short of transformative.

Every day, you:

  • Change Lives: By providing critical care and support, you empower individuals to overcome addiction and rebuild their lives.
  • Break Stigma: Your compassion and expertise help shift perceptions and create a more understanding environment for those in need.
  • Innovate and Advocate: From implementing evidence-based treatments to advocating for better policies, you are at the forefront of progress in addiction care.

At the NCCHC Foundation, we are inspired by your commitment and are proud to support your work through scholarships, educational opportunities, and resources tailored to correctional health care professionals.

This National Addiction Professionals Day, we encourage everyone to take a moment to express gratitude for the vital role you play. Together, we’re creating pathways to hope, healing, and brighter futures.
