Substance Use Prevention and Recovery
Adults in recovery need support and support systems for long-term health and well-being. Family and Consumer Sciences Extension recognizes addiction as a chronic health condition. Our work focuses on reducing stigma through education and the use of respectful, positive language. Participants learn practical skills to support their recovery, including managing stress, developing healthy relationships, and staying active. Through strong partnerships with community organizations, we work to make recovery programs more accessible and effective across Kentucky.
