Gándara Center Celebrates National Recovery Month Hope for Holyoke (HFH) was one of several Gándara recovery support centers participating in events in conjunction with National Recovery Month in September. On September 16, HFH celebrated National Recovery Month with its float in Springfield’s Puerto Rican Parade, and the following day, members of HFH and our Stairway to Recovery center in Brockton joined a rally and a march in Boston that included a meeting in Faneuil Hall (pictured above). On September 21, HFH participated in the Western Massachusetts Recovery Day, which was organized by the Massachusetts Organization for Addiction Recovery at the Holy Name Social Center in Springfield. HFH also hosted its annual Holyoke Recovery Day on September 28, which included a celebration at Veterans Park and a march through the streets of downtown Holyoke to the HFH offices on Suffolk Street. Their chant, “What does recovery look like? This is what recovery looks like!” elicited cheers from passersby and encouraging honks from motorists’ horns. In addition, our PIER Recovery Center of Cape Cod held its Third Anniversary Celebration in Hyannis on September 5, and our Plymouth Recovery Center held its first ever Recovery Rally on September 16.
