A network of sober peers is a critical part of long-term recovery. When you walk through our doors, you immediately become a part of our Vogue family for life. We’ll always be there to support you in your recovery in whatever way possible, and that includes welcoming you into our alumni community when you leave treatment.
As part of the Aliya Health Group network, the North Star alumni community at Vogue Recovery Center offers continuous support and valuable resources to graduates of our programs. North Star connects you with peers in recovery who have also participated in addiction treatment at any of our locations. The name comes from the symbolism of the North Star as a guiding light, providing direction and guidance on your journey to recovery.
What Is An Alumni Program?
An alumni program for drug and alcohol addiction treatment is a support system designed to help individuals who have completed a rehabilitation program continue their recovery journey. It provides ongoing support, resources, and community for those in recovery to maintain sobriety and live a fulfilling life.
When Do People Join An Alumni Program?
A network of sober peers is a critical part of long-term recovery. When you walk through our doors, you immediately become a part of our Vogue family for life. We’ll always be there to support you in your recovery in whatever way possible, and that includes welcoming you into our alumni community when you leave treatment.
For this reason, people join our alumni program after they complete one of our addiction treatment programs. Some may join immediately after completing detox, whereas others may continue treatment through outpatient care. To familiarize you with the alumni program and meet members, clients in our residential programs are welcome to attend an alumni group before they leave inpatient treatment.
What To Expect In Our Alumni Program?
We understand that recovery is not just about staying sober, but also about improving overall well-being and finding joy in life. That is why our alumni program offers a ready-made supportive community for life after addiction treatment. By being part of our alumni community, you will have access to regular gatherings and activities where you can connect with other sober individuals.
Activities and features of our alumni program vary by location, but may include:
- Weekly meetings on site and/or via Zoom.
- Regular outings and events such as social gatherings and volunteering.
- Bowling, going to the movies, and other fun events.
- Monthly dinners.
- Private, dedicated Facebook alumni page.
Our alumni events range from fun outings such as hiking trips or beach days, to more structured support groups and workshops led by licensed therapists. Our alumni program also offers ongoing education and resources for maintaining a healthy and balanced lifestyle. This includes workshops on nutrition, exercise, mindfulness, and self-care practices.
In addition to in-person connections, our alumni community also has an online platform where members can stay connected, share their experiences and provide support to one another. This provides a safe and confidential space for those in recovery to communicate and receive ongoing guidance and encouragement.
What Is The Goal of Our Alumni Program?
We believe that having a strong network of sober peers is essential for maintaining long-term sobriety. Our North Star alumni community offers just that – a supportive and understanding group of individuals who have gone through similar struggles and are committed to supporting each other in their recovery journey.
The goal of our alumni program is to prevent relapse by providing you and your peers with the necessary tools and support to stay on track in recovery and life. This can include group meetings, counseling, educational workshops, sober activities, and events.
