FORT LAUDERDALE, FL September 18, 2024—National Addiction Professionals Day will be recognized on Friday, September 20, 2024, as a key part of National Recovery Month. It’s a day set aside to honor the addiction professionals who are dedicated to helping individuals and families affected by substance use and mental health disorders.
These professionals—from addiction counselors to therapists, social workers, nurses, doctors, and other healthcare providers—work tirelessly across the Praesum Healthcare continuum of care to play crucial roles in the prevention, treatment, and recovery of those struggling with addiction.
This essential day, established in 1992 by NAADAC, celebrates the importance of all aspects of the work of addiction professionals. As we approach this day, we extend heartfelt gratitude to every member of the Praesum family. Your dedication and passion make a tangible difference in countless lives every single day.
