Recovery Month at Healthy Lamoille Valley
What does Recovery Month mean for Healthy Lamoille Valley? As a prevention coalition with strong recovery partners in the community, we are able to bring recovery into our work. We collaborate regularly with the teams at North Central Vermont Recovery Center (NCVRC) and Jenna’s Promise. Why? Because recovery is prevention.
Supporting Mental Health in Sports
Coaches play a pivotal role in shaping the mental and emotional well-being of their athletes. It’s essential to create environments that promote open communication, trust, and support, and to recognize the challenges faced by both coaches and players. By prioritizing mental health, we can ensure that sports remain a source of joy, growth, and resilience for all involved.
