Wellbrook Recovery

Because the sobriety journey doesn’t end when treatment does

While we all wish that addiction rehab is the complete solution and upon graduation, you’re just set for life, realistically though, several weeks of rehab is not enough. Moving beyond addiction is a continuous and sometimes trying process, and graduates from our program need an alumni program as robust as ours to stay in touch with their recovery and carry them into real life.

The two ways our alumni program
ensures your success

A strong support network

Our alumni program is built on the power of peer support—those who have walked along the same path. Our dedicated alumni coordinator and robust alumni network provide ongoing encouragement, events and resources, helping you stay connected to your recovery. Together, we foster a network of support that ensures no one has to complete this courageous journey alone.

Sobriety remains a focus

After treatment, you’d be surprised how quickly life settles down. Work and family responsibilities continue to crop up from right where you left them. Distractions abound, and it’s easy to lose focus on maintaining sobriety. During our events, fun gatherings and meetings, you’ll be reminded of the therapies and lessons, and how much fun recovery life is, keeping sobriety front and center for a truly blessed life.

When you’re ready to go into the big wide world, you can stick together with your Wellbrook friends to maintain all your hard-earned progress and new quality of life.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens after treatment ends?
The alumni program picks up where treatment leaves off. Graduates keep a connection to the team and to the people they went through treatment with, through meetings, check ins, gatherings, fun events and retreats, and a private online community, so recovery carries on with support around it. Alumni also get together for sober sports watch parties, sober tailgates and outings to games.
How do alumni stay connected between meetings?
Through the alumni app, which carries chats, sobriety milestones, photo sharing, an event calendar and support, giving graduates a private space to stay in contact with the people they went through treatment with. Every facility also has a dedicated alumni coordinator, so graduates always have someone to reach out to.
Can family members take part in aftercare?
Families in Wisconsin can attend the Family Education and Support Program in Brookfield, which runs in person and covers boundaries, communication, family roles, codependency and the stages of relapse. Each session stands alone, so relatives can attend the ones that fit. Wisconsin families also come together at fun gatherings. In Ohio, families stay involved through occasional fun gatherings, as well as Families Anonymous (FA) events held at the facility.
