Support that continues
Aftercare and alumni program
The months after treatment are when recovery gets tested. Our aftercare program keeps you connected to people, routines, and professional support long after you leave our campus.
Inside aftercare
Aftercare planning starts the day you arrive. Before you leave, you’ll have appointments booked with an outpatient therapist and, if needed, a psychiatric provider, plus a list of meetings close to home.
Then the alumni program takes over: weekly meetings on campus and online, monthly sober events, and a recovery coach who checks in during the first 90 days.
What’s included
- A written aftercare and relapse prevention plan
- Weekly alumni meetings, in person and online
- Recovery coaching check-ins for 90 days
- Sober living referrals in Orange County
- Coordinated outpatient therapy and psychiatry
- Monthly sober events and service opportunities
Why it matters
- The first 90 days after treatment carry the highest relapse risk
- Someone notices if you start to struggle
- Friendships with people who understand
- A quick path back to care if you need it
- Chances to give back by helping newcomers
- Structure while you rebuild daily life
Typical length
12 months and beyond

Recovery story
Still showing up, three years later
Priya left residential treatment nervous about going back to the same city and the same friends. Her recovery coach called every Monday for three months.
Now she co-hosts the Thursday alumni meeting and takes new alumni to coffee after their first week home.
Leaving treatment felt like stepping off a cliff, until I realized the alumni group was there to catch me.
Your first year after treatment
Before discharge
Your aftercare plan is written with you, and first appointments are booked before you leave.
The first 90 days
Weekly recovery coach check-ins, outpatient care, and alumni meetings.
Months 4 to 12
Alumni meetings, events, and support as you take on more of daily life.
For life
You’re always welcome back at meetings, events, and on the phone line.
A community, not a discharge packet
Many programs hand you a list of meetings on your last day. We introduce you to people. Our alumni coordinator connects every graduate with alumni who live nearby and share similar backgrounds.
If you do slip, call us. A relapse is information, not failure, and our admissions team can help you return to the level of care you need quickly and without judgment.

Recovery looks different for everyone. These are a few of the people who trusted us with theirs.
Evening IOP let me keep my business running while I got sober. The group became the most honest part of my week.
We came in together and left together, sober. The couples sessions saved our marriage as much as our health.
Admissions handled my insurance, picked me up from the airport, and had a bed ready that night. All I had to do was call.
