A celebration of National Recovery Month, because...
Recovery is Happening in Kalamazoo!
Kalamazoo’s Annual Wellness & Recovery Festival brings people together from all over the county
in celebration of Mental Health and Freedom from Addiction
This event showcases local resources, businesses and organizations that are providing support to the recovery community. We also offer an opportunity for real people living in recovery (peers) to display their talents and artistry.
In addition to the local resource booths, we provide food, fun, games, live music and so much more for the whole family.
To get up to date information on the Wellness & Recovery Festival, like our facebook page or sign up to get our email announcements.

The fair is organized by the Fair Planning Committee. This group of peers and advocates strives to empower others who are in recovery from substance use and mental health concerns. Recovery Institute has been fortunate to serve as the fair fiduciary and fair planning meeting place every year.
Special thanks goes out to our co-hosts, moral supporters and primary financial sponsors for the fair:
