Post-Discharge Outreach
We know that consistent contact cultivates relationships. After leaving STR Behavioral Health, each alumni receives an initial check-in, as well as ongoing scheduled check-ins. During these check-ins, recovery challenges and the needed resources are identified and addressed so our alumni and their families feel supported.
