The Pittsburgh Recovery Walk celebrates the many roads to recovery from addiction and all those who travel them.
Specifically the walk aims to:
1) celebrate recovery and recovery supports in our region
2) eliminate stigma toward people personally impacted by addiction
3) showcase the many resources for recovery support, health, and harm reduction in our region
The 2024 Recovery Walk takes place in September as part of National Recovery Month.
What? The 9th annual Pittsburgh Recovery Walk will include speakers, a giant Resource Fair, the Pittsburgh Recovery Awards, kids' activities, food trucks, music, and a parade through Downtown Pittsburgh. The whole event will also be livestreamed!

Who? The Pittsburgh Recovery Walk is free and open to the public. Everyone whose life has been touched by addiction or recovery is invited to join our celebration.
