Alumni Program

At Southeast Addiction Center Tennessee, we regard community as a valuable principle. 12-step programs, like AA, have sponsors. No one should travel the road to recovery alone. Instinctively, humans have a need to share our stories. We possess an innate craving to feel genuinely known by someone. It helps to have someone in your corner. Especially if that person has walked a road similar to yours. That person would be familiar with hazards along the way. They could offer wisdom to those who come after them. 

For this reason, Southeast Addiction Center Tennessee offers an alumni program. We reserve it for those who graduate from our drug and alcohol treatment program.

Drug and alcohol treatment programs only thrive when they touch lives. At Southeast, we strive to maintain ties with our alumni. These connections help clients continue the recovery process they began under our care. They also contribute to the recovery of others. Connection and fellowship represent core principles in recovery. They serve to strengthen and inspire. Our alumni program endeavors to build bridges between those we have helped in the past and those we help today.

Southeast Addiction has a professional staff of superior quality. They can offer empathy, compassion, and helpful reflections. But people who have walked the road of recovery themselves have a specific kind of insight. An alumnus doesn’t just assist someone experiencing withdrawal. No, someone in our alumni program knows how withdrawal feels. They’ve walked the walk. So, they can talk the talk. Gleaning wisdom from an alumnus makes an incredible difference. It might mean one more day of recovery for someone in desperate need. 

At Southeast Addiction Center Tennessee, we regard community as a valuable principle. 12-step programs, like AA, have sponsors, and we believe that each of our clients deserves to feel the same sense of community even if they choose not to continue working through their 12-step program. No one should travel the road to recovery alone. Instinctively, humans have a need to share stories. We possess an innate craving to feel genuinely known by someone. When it comes to addiction recovery, it helps to have someone in your corner, especially if that person has walked a road similar to yours. That person would be familiar with hazards along the way and could offer wisdom to those who come after them. 

Here at Southeast Addiction,we offer an alumni program that is meant to keep each of our clients connected once they have completed our program and have moved on to living a fulfilling life of sobriety. We reserve this program for our clients who graduate from our drug and alcohol treatment program or have successfully completed our drug and alcohol detox program.
