In Observance of International Recovery Month which bears the theme “Join the Voices for Recovery: Together We Learn, Together We Heal”.
The National Drug Council in the Cayman Islands along with treatment agencies and allied organizations will join many countries around the world in efforts to highlight the societal benefits of substance abuse treatment, praise the contributions of treatment providers and promote the message that recovery from substance abuse in all its forms is possible.
Among its efforts the National Drug Council will be launching its monthly public service announcements titled “Health Minute”. The Health Minute is a public service announcement feature provided free of charge to the National Drug Council by media outlets throughout the Cayman Islands. The Health Minute is a component of the NDC’s Anti-Drug Media Campaign which seeks to improve the health and wellbeing of persons by enhancing awareness on the dangers of alcohol and other drug use, misuse and abuse.
This month’s Health Minute segment will be aired through media outlets and will highlight the topic of treatment. Persons seeking information on RECOVERY should contact the Department of Counselling Services 949-8789, The Wellness Center 949-9355, Employee Assistance Programme 949-9559 or Terry Delaney 526-1378.
Be sure to listen out for this month’s “Health Minute”.
