Proclamations Proc. 7922 helping our children to make healthy choices and build lives of purpose. To aid citizens seeking treatment and recovery for substance abuse, my Ad- ministration also has provided $200 million over the past 2 years for the Access to Recovery program. My 2006 budget requests an additional $150 million for this program to further expand treatment choices. Directing re- sources to individuals allows them to choose a program that suits their needs and increases their chances of success. In addition, we have in- creased opportunities for communities and faith-based providers to aid those suffering from addiction. I encourage all Americans to support individuals striving to overcome ad- diction and the groups that are helping to fight alcohol and drug addiction. By working together, we can continue to build a more compassionate soci- ety that transforms lives and provides health, hope, and healing to those who hurt. NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim September 2005 as National Alcohol and Drug Addiction Recovery Month. I call upon the people of the United States to observe this month with appropriate programs and activi- ties. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-ninth day of August, in the year of our Lord two thousand five, and of the Inde- pendence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirtieth.
