Alumni Association
Inter-Care believes that it is vital that you begin to build a strong foundation in sobriety.. Understanding how to eliminate alcohol and drug use is a good beginning, but you need the on-going connection and support of others. The INTER-CARE Alumni Association is one of the best ways to get help in preparing that foundation.
The Alumni Association is a supportive group of past and present patients of INTER-CARE with at least 6 months of sobriety. It is in the collegial, sober and safe environment of the Association that one can start to build sober relationships and have fun in sobriety. Sober social events, including sober outings, holiday parties, and fund-raising events are organized by the Alumni Association. These events provide an opportunity to break out of isolation, to practice “showing up”, and to contribute your efforts to the Association’s endeavors and worthy causes. Learn more about the multiple benefits of the INTER-CARE Alumni Association by asking your counselor or by calling the Alumni Connection at INTER-CARE at 212 532 0303 x303, or contact us via email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

SAFE SOCIALIZING
The Alumni Association’s main purpose is to help Inter-Care alumni stay sober and enjoy socializing—safe from the familiar pitfalls that often lead to relapse. “I see the Alumni Association as a kind of buddy system,” says member Diana E. “When I was ready to leave Inter-Care, I feared being ‘out there’ all alone. The Alumni Association is there for us during and after treatment.”
The Association’s Communication & Outreach Committee creates ways to get members involved in activities; the Events & Party Committee plans special social events.
