🚗🚨 December Is National Impaired Driving Prevention Month🚗🚨
As we head into the holiday season, December serves as an important reminder to keep our roads — and our communities — safe. National Impaired Driving Prevention Month shines a light on the dangers of driving under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or even certain medications.
This month aligns with national efforts like Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over (running December 12, 2025–January 1, 2026), which increases education and enforcement to help prevent avoidable tragedies during one of the busiest travel times of the year.

🌟 How You Can Make Safe Choices
🙋🏽‍♀️ Designate a sober driver

🚖 Use ride-share services

📲 Call a friend

🚌 Take public transportation

🆘 Report an impaired driver in New Mexico, call or #394

📌 Did You Know?
Impaired driving isn’t just about alcohol — many drugs, including prescription and over-the-counter medications, can slow reaction time and impact driving ability.

🫶🏽Let’s keep our loved ones safe and make responsible choices this holiday season.🫶🏽

🧡✨ Friendsgiving at Turning Point Recovery Center ✨🧡
Yesterday we celebrated one of our favorite traditions — 🍂 Friendsgiving at TPRC!🍁
Our clients and staff came together to share food, laughter, gratitude, and connection. It was a beautiful reminder that recovery is built not only on support and hard work, but also on community, joy, and moments like these.

From the amazing dishes everyone contributed to the conversations and smiles around the room, Friendsgiving was truly a celebration of how far we’ve come together.
A huge thank-you to our staff for making this event possible, and to our clients for bringing so much heart and courage into every space we share. 🩷

At TPRC, we believe recovery is more than treatment — it’s belonging, hope, and the chance to build new traditions with people who care.
Here’s to gratitude, growth, and community. 🦃🍂

🧘 It’s National Self-Care Week! 🛁
Our Reminder for Those in Recovery:
This week (Nov 17–23) is National Self-Care Week, a powerful reminder to prioritize both mind and body. Self-Care Forum+1
Self-care isn’t just a luxury — it’s a foundation for healing. Especially in addiction recovery, small acts of self-kindness can build resilience, reduce stress, and support long-term wellness.

Here are a few self-care practices that can support your recovery journey:
+ Take a few deep breaths, stretch, or go for a walk.
+ Write, draw, or journal what you’re feeling.
+ Set gentle routines (sleep, meals, breaks, baths) to ground yourself.
+ Reach out for connection — talk with someone you trust, or join a support group.

You are not defined by your struggles — you're defined by your courage to keep going. Self-care is part of recovery. It’s not selfish — it's self-preservation. Whether you’re in recovery or not, find time to lean into self-care with kindness, not perfection.

🇺🇸 Thank you to all our veterans today! 🇺🇸
We honor the immense sacrifices made by our nation's soldiers and their families. They face unique stressors, such as combat exposure, multiple deployments, and the lingering effects of PTSD and traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). Veterans with PTSD or TBIs are particularly vulnerable to misusing alcohol, opioids, and other substances, which can increase the risk of mental health issues and interpersonal conflicts.

Veterans.org reports that substance abuse in veterans shows that among those who have SUDs, more than 80% (nearly 900,000) abuse alcohol, nearly 27% (about 300,000) abuse illegal drugs, and about 7% (almost 80,000) abuse both alcohol and illegal drugs.

If you are a veteran who is struggling with SUDs, we are here for you.
Contact us today to learn how we can help you get back on your best path forward.
