Chestnut System Focused on Community Based Recovery Programs

September is National Recovery Month and a central Illinois substance abuse organization is focusing on community-based recovery programs.

 

Chestnut Health Systems' Nadia Klekamp on the WHOW Morning Show Tuesday indicates they are focusing on providing supports for the communities within their system. She says they meet virtually and meetings are posted online for those that cannot attend.

 

 

While many think of Chestnut for treatment of addictions but Klekamp indicates there's a whole new battle once the recovery phase has been completed and that is the battle of maintaining sobriety and return to a normal life.

 

 

Klekamp says National Recovery Month is not just about those that have completed the treatment process but those that are in the midst of it as well as those that continue to maintain sobriety.
