Recovery from Alcohol or Drugs, Legal Rights, Overcoming Discrimination

All-Inclusive Guide Informs Those in Recovery from Alcohol or Drug Problems About Legal Rights and Overcoming Discrimination

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) has introduced a new brochure for people in substance use disorders treatment and recovery, their allies, advocates, and employers. “Are You in Recovery from Alcohol or Drug Problems? Know Your Rights” provides information about federal laws that protect against discrimination in employment and job training, housing, health care, education, and government services and programs.

Written in partnership with the Legal Action Center, “Know Your Rights” brings a wealth of information about federal laws to people in recovery. The brochure is available in both English and Spanish.

This one-of-a-kind resource, sponsored and produced by SAMHSA’s Center for Substance Abuse Treatment, helps people identify discrimination, addresses federal laws and protections, and provides useful resources. SOURCE:
