Assisting clients to maintain recovery after they leave treatment is an important goal at all Pioneer facilities. Discharge planning begins upon a client’s intake/admission to ensure that the necessary supportive environment is in place upon the client’s discharge. Through ongoing communication with the referring professionals, clients experience a smooth transition back to their home and work environments with supportive services, such as outpatient counseling. The Aftercare Services provide clients with strong support during the early period of their recovery.

Since our clients are seen throughout the nation, an extensive aftercare provider network makes meetings available for clients in their local areas. These meetings are seen as an adjunct to, and not a replacement for, traditional 12-step meetings, which are an essential part of recovery.

Alumni groups from each of our facilities sponsor social activities throughout the year. These activities allow former clients to stay in contact with one other during their recovery.
