PaRC BH - Prevention and Recovery Center

Fourth of July, vacations, backyard parties… this time of year brings a variety of activities, which sometimes throw off daily routines and social settings. And while many enjoy the outdoor activities that come with the warmer days, the “party” atmosphere can feel challenging for those in recovery for a substance use or alcohol disorder.

We want you to navigate this sun-soaked season with some helpful tips:

1. Be vocal about your sobriety. It brings accountability.
2. Have a support person on speed dial that you can call if you need help.
3. Go to a meeting before or after the event/party.
4. Don’t put yourself in a vulnerable position or go to someplace where you are the only sober person.
5. Have a plan or an exit strategy.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month — a reminder that healing your mind is a large part of the addiction recovery journey.

If you’re struggling, please know:

• You’re not alone
• Your story matters
• Help is available

Recovery isn’t easy, and asking for help can feel overwhelming. But reaching out — whether to a professional, a loved one, or even admitting you need support — is a powerful first step.

This month, let’s break the stigma around addiction and mental health, have honest conversations and support one another.

Your mind matters. Your life matters.

This Alcohol Awareness Month, we wore red to show what matters most — awareness, support and community.

Because every step toward understanding makes a difference.
