The Vermont Association for Mental Health and Addiction Recovery (VAMHAR) is a longstanding statewide organization founded in 1939 by the Montpelier Ladies Garden Club during the Great Depression. Dedicated to promoting mental wellness in Vermont, VAMHAR advocates for all paths to recovery from addiction and mental health conditions, offering evidence-based practices and a diverse network of supports for individuals in recovery.
With a mission to provide recovery leadership from local communities to national platforms, VAMHAR works tirelessly to end the stigma surrounding Substance Use Disorder (SUD) by emphasizing that it is a health condition. Through advocacy, professional training, and a range of programs like Recovery Vermont and VADIC, VAMHAR continues to be an essential pillar in Vermont's workforce development and public health community.
