Alumni Network  Chapter Meetings

The Hazelden Betty Ford Alumni Network is a testament to the unfailing strength of together, where we share the unbreakable bond of recovery and support one another. And wherever you are in your recovery, there’s a spot for you here at our Alumni Network chapter meetings.

With Alumni Network chapters across the United States and Canada, it’s easy to find your welcome place among us. And every meeting follows the same format (similar to an AA meeting) so you can comfortably attend whichever you’d like. Stop by virtually or in-person for countless evenings of fellowship and support, and we can’t wait to see you.

Also, family and friends are always welcome to join.

National Alumni Meeting

Hosted online on the first Tuesday of every month, our National Alumni Meeting connects Hazelden Betty Ford's friends and family from across the country. Get to know and grow alongside other alumni who are serious about recovery, share your experiences to help newcomers and hear new perspectives that push your recovery ever onward.

This meeting is open to all alumni and family members.
