Drug and alcohol addiction is never cured. It is a lifetime commitment you take on to improve your health and wellbeing. Once you complete your treatment program, you are not on your own to deal with it as you go, though. Rather, you are able to get help on a consistent basis in a number of ways. An alumni program is one option. At Serenity Light Recovery, we provide you with the tools and resources you need to achieve this.
How Does an Alumni Program Work?
Every time a person comes through our drug and alcohol treatment program, they have changed and, in many ways, improved the process. An alumni program is a way for you to interact with and remain a part of the process. Many people find themselves in need of a bit of help here and there. You may want to come in for a therapy appointment or sit in during a group session. Doing so is possible through this type of program.
Getting more for your care makes sense. Once you leave drug and alcohol treatment, you will quickly learn that there is a lot of work to do. Life is full of stress and triggers. You may find it hard to make the right decisions when so many thoughts are going through your mind. That is why alumni programs are so important. They provide the resources and strategies necessary to improve health and wellbeing. They give you the clarity and support you need when life gets hard.
Giving Back Matters, Too
Alumni programs are not just counseling sessions you take when you leave rehab. Rather, they tend to be opportunities for you to come back and support those who are currently in rehab. The insights you have learned through this process are outstanding. You know more about how it feels to be in the shoes of those in rehab than anyone else. With an alumni program, you are able to help them to see the other side – what happens when they work hard and do their best. Now is an exceptional time to gain this type of insight because those in rehab are often in the very vulnerable time of their life.

Seek the Help Right for You at Serenity Light Recovery
Life after rehab can be hard. Aftercare and alumni programs can help ease the transition from rehab to real life and protect you from a potential relapse. A relapse can undo months or even years of sobriety and addiction therapy.
