Meet Your Alumni Chapter Lead

“The connection that is kept with EHN Canada for me has been so rewarding! It allows me to give back to the community, strengthens my recovery program as it keeps the memories real. It reinforces relationships with those in recovery and perhaps with some common experiences in recovery, supports connections to the real world/community I live in, my authentic self, and the life I have achieved through the EHN Canada therapeutic experience. My consistent involvement in the alumni community has kept me authentic, and full of gratitude for the relationship/s I have found in the EHN Canada Alumni Association. I attribute my long-term recovery directly to this association.”

Programs that could help if you’re struggling.

If you’re worried about relapsing or simply want a refresh on your skills, we have programs that can help.

RETURN TO WELLNESS

Recognizing that extended treatment isn’t always feasible, we tailor our hybrid program to those balancing personal, financial, or professional commitments. Our program is designed to deliver the essential support and stability you require, with the added benefit of flexibility, eliminating the need for long-term inpatient care.

When you finish treatment, one of the most important things you can do to enjoy lasting recovery is to stay connected with your fellow alumni. This is where the EHN Canada Alumni Association comes in. We’re proud to offer ongoing support, care, and some fun, for our alumni and their families.
