AFTER CARE & RETURNING TO YOUR HOME COMMUNITY

 

 

It has been said the real work begins after treatment. Last Door has recognized this for close to 30 years. Long Term Recovery requires ongoing support.

Follow Up Support Plans for clients for when they return to work, school and family life are tailored to individual, employer and family needs.

Client’s plans include clearly defined activities, goals, expectations and conditions and may include long term monitoring by Last Door staff or other professionals.

There are 1000’s of successful Alumni who have stayed connected with each other and act as role models to clients making this move. It is not uncommon to have Alumni from places such as California or Alberta fly into New Westminster to celebrate their recovery birthdays with new clients.

There are no completion certificates at Last Door hence clients are always welcome to visit and attend groups after they have completed their treatment. This value added service allows clients to stay connected so they can continue to find solutions to the everyday negative and positive life situations, that are inevitable even with years of recovery.

Along with ongoing Alumni clinical supports and following Last Door’s traditions a plethora of Community Events for Alumni and their families is offered year round:

  • Annual Family Program Reunion (over 400 attendees)
  • Annual Alumni Reunion (over 500 attendees)
  • Annual Recovery Slo-Pitch Tournament (over 2000 attendees)
  • Annual Kelowna Weekend Campout
  • Theatre, Sporting Events and Comedy Evenings that always sold out
  • Last Door offers Alumni Group every Wednesday and Thursday evenings from 6:30 pm to 8 pm
