But did you know it’s also Recovery Week?!
After years of having just one annual day to officially celebrate recovery, 2017 marked the first official “Recovery Week” in BC! The Vancouver Recovery Society kicked it up a notch to bring you the Recovery Capital Conference, and the second annual event is taking place on September 6th -7th 2018.
