Stay Connected
Staying connected in recovery is one of the best methods for relapse prevention.
Because addiction is a disease of isolation, it is important for addicts and alcoholics to establish a strong support system in sobriety. While MARR upholds its traditions of intensive addiction treatment and a strong community model, we utilize newer strategies like our MARR4Life app and social media to help our alumni feel more connected.
Whether you need a few words of encouragement, wish to touch base with other alumni and staff, want to find out what’s happening at MARR, or would like to read up on recovery-related material, we want you to stay connected.
The MARR4Life App
It has been said that if you stay close to your community, you’ll stay sober. That’s why we have created the free MARR4Life app as an extension of connectedness for our clients as they leave our treatment centers to enhance long-term recovery. This private, invite-only app allows fellow MARR Addiction Treatment Centers alumni to:
- Track recovery
- Celebrate milestones and offer peer support
- Stay up to date on Alumni events
- Share their experience, strength, and hope
- Relapse prevention and outcome data
- Inspiration
