This Pride Month, we celebrate the courage it takes to show up as your authentic self. Every person deserves to feel seen, respected, and supported for who they are. Pride is a reminder that self-acceptance, community, and belonging are powerful parts of healing and growth.
Celebrate yourself. Every day.
Happy Pride Month

New virtual Emotional Regulation Groups are starting soon through our Prevention Program. These free groups offer a supportive space to learn healthy ways to handle stress, manage emotions, and build coping skills.

Groups will meet virtually on Wednesdays at 12PM and Thursdays at 4PM. A short pre-test and post-test are included. Participants who complete all 10 sessions will receive a certificate of completion.

Today, New Choices Recovery Center pauses to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice while serving our country.

Memorial Day is more than a long weekend — it is a time to reflect on courage, service, sacrifice, and the lives given in protection of others. We extend our deepest gratitude to those we have lost, and we hold their families, loved ones, and fellow service members in our thoughts today.

As a community rooted in hope, healing, and support, we also recognize the importance of connection, compassion, and standing together — especially for veterans, military families, and those navigating challenges after service.

Today we remember.
Today we honor.
Today, we thank those who gave everything.
