support, care, and recovery

Accredited with Commendation by Accreditation Canada

Welcome to the EHN Guardians Alumni Community

When you finish treatment, one of the most important things you can do to enjoy lasting recovery is to stay connected with your fellow alumni. This is where the EHN Guardians Alumni Community comes in. We’re proud to offer ongoing support, care, and some fun, for our alumni and their families.

The EHN Guardians Alumni Community

At EHN Guardians, we believe that everyone deserves a life of lasting recovery. So, whether you are an alum from one of our inpatient facilities, attended a family program, or completed our virtual program, we want to develop a relationship with you for life. Here’s how we can help:

allows you to create a homebase of support and community at locations across Canada. And we have a virtual community of people across the country who meet regularly to support each other.
