Thanksgiving is a perfect opportunity for our Association to express appreciation to each and every one of you for all you do to support those with mental illness and substance abuse.  Moreover, thank you to those in recovery who teach us so much about courage and resiliency.  Working with this community of individuals is a great way to reaffirm that at our core, we are a nation that is filled with citizens who care what happens to others.  On behalf of our members and staff, we say thank you and wish you and your family a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday.
