Alumni Program
Sharing experience, strength, and hope to support lifelong recovery. Together, we improve the lives we touch.
Experience. Strength. Hope.
At Canyon Vista, recovery doesn’t end at discharge—it’s a lifelong journey. Our Alumni Program provides continued connection, support, and encouragement for those walking the path of healing. Through shared experiences, strength, and hope, we empower one another to grow, thrive, and improve the lives we touch every day.
We do recover—together.
We celebrate milestones, gather for alumni events, and stay present for one another — through the highs, the lows, and everything in between. Whether you’re newly sober or years into recovery, you belong here.
When you enter Canyon Vista Recovery, our commitment to your success goes beyond treatment.
Our alumni department wants to ensure that you have every opportunity to be successful and remain clean and sober. All Canyon Vista alumni are invited to the alumni program.
You can also join us in person at our alumni meetings on Wednesday and Saturday at 6:00 pm.
Canyon Vista Alumni Program offers you:
- Phone follow-ups
- Emails
- Annual social events
- Facebook group
- CaredFor App
Top 3 Benefits of Participating in the Alumni Program:
-
Support:
Recovery is not meant to be done alone. The top reason we encourage members to get involved in our program is the endless support offered by the hundreds of alumni members who are successfully maintaining sobriety. Let’s face it, no one understands an addict like another addict. -
Network:
Throughout your program at Canyon Vista, you will meet the alumni coordinator who can help connect you to other alumni in the area. These alumni members can help be a support, take you to meetings, or connect you with recovery in your area. -
Substance-Free Activities:
Once a month our Alumni coordinator hosts an event/activity for our alumni to enjoy their newfound sobriety, connect with other members, and have fun!
