The alumni program at Cornerstone of Southern California is designed to guide our clients from early treatment stages into aftercare and beyond by connecting them to a fellowship of like-minded individuals. We aim to create a healthy atmosphere for continued healing, reuniting families, and nurturing positive connections in sobriety. To keep all our alumni connected, we have developed a Mobile Alumni App that facilitates easy communication and engagement.
Our community is filled with alumni who are willing to walk hand in hand with those desiring to follow the path toward wellness and recovery, and we have fun doing it!
Here are some of the benefits that Cornerstone’s alumni program offers:
Our alumni program fosters connection, a vital component of any long-term recovery plan. The need for a safe and healthy recovery community can easily be forgotten as “normal life” takes over. Cornerstone offers ways to engage both through private and securely monitored social media groups, monthly social events, and our Mobile Alumni App. These events and the app are designed to show our clients how to create and enjoy a new life, helping them avoid reverting to old ways of living.
The alumni group has a core group of people with experience in staying clean and sober who offer nonprofessional, nonclinical assistance to help achieve long-term recovery from alcohol and drugs. We believe in the importance of valued social roles in maintaining abstinence, and our members are more than happy to offer their support.
At Cornerstone, we meet people at all stages of their recovery from drugs and alcohol. Compassion and genuine care for our clients are always our central considerations. Long after the initial recovery phase, we offer advice and guidance. We understand the complexities of life, and by connecting with our Alumni program, you can access our team of addiction professionals for any help you may need.
Creating a new life in sobriety means replacing unhealthy activities with new ways to live. Structure and routine are a key part of this process so you can start building that new life on a firm foundation. Staying connected to a group of people who know how to live sober will help you keep a finger on the pulse of recovery with recommended 12-step meetings; attend social events like the movies and miniature golfing; partake in physical activities like hiking or a game of pickleball and you don’t have to go at it alone. Joining the Alumni program allows you to fill your free time with the right kind of fun.

Sober life will offer you many opportunities including ways to be of service and engage with the community. Cornerstone alumni seek to find new ways to give back and volunteering is a great place to start. Cornerstone’s alumni program makes it a point to offer our time to charitable organizations and to show our support whenever possible. We find the best way to maintain continuous recovery is to be of service to others and we have a lot of fun doing it.
Sobriety will offer you many opportunities, whether it be new employment or engaging in fun activities. Being available and present to fully participate in life is something to be grateful for. As you embark on this new chapter, it may seem daunting at first. Rest assured that members of our Alumni program have, at some point, held the same fears and had similar misgivings as you. They can support you through this change, and their experience with long-term recovery is an invaluable asset.
Our Mobile Alumni App ensures that you stay connected with this supportive network, providing you with easy access to the wisdom and guidance of those who have successfully navigated the path to lasting sobriety. The app allows you to engage with fellow alumni, share your experiences, and seek advice whenever you need it. By staying connected through the app, you can draw strength from the collective experience of the alumni community and find inspiration in their stories of personal growth and transformation.
Remember that you are not alone in this journey. The Cornerstone alumni community is here to walk beside you, offering encouragement, understanding, and practical support as you build a fulfilling life in recovery. Embrace the opportunities that sobriety brings and know that with the help of our dedicated alumni network and the convenience of our Mobile Alumni App, you have the tools and support necessary to achieve lasting success.
Members of our Alumni program differ in terms of involvement. Some only attend our meetings now and then, while others will fully engage in all we have to offer. We believe in being flexible for the individual and attending our Alumni events is not a compulsory requirement. However, the Alumni do benefit from a core group of ex-residents who volunteer their time and knowledge; freely giving back to the recovery community so they can help others succeed in their recovery journey.
