California Recovery Center launches recovery app for clients, alumni and public

California Recovery Center has launched a mobile app in Roseville to keep clients, alumni, families and community members connected to recovery tools after treatment ends. The free app adds check-ins, sobriety tracking, reminders and private alumni spaces, while preserving separate access tiers for clients, alumni and the public.

Why it matters: - California Recovery Center is trying to close the gap that often opens after discharge, when support from a treatment provider typically fades. - The new app gives people one place to access encouragement, recovery tools and community connection on an ongoing basis. - The launch extends CRC’s aftercare model beyond in-person programming and into daily mobile use.

What happened: - California Recovery Center announced the launch of a mobile app for its clients, alumni, family members, DUI program participants and the broader public. - The Roseville, California, treatment provider said the app is available now as a free download on the Apple App Store and Google Play. - CEO Will Mentesh said the app was built to provide ongoing support, resources and encouragement after treatment ends.

The details: - Clients and alumni get access to encouragement, dedicated community spaces, reminders and recovery resources from a single phone app. - Public users can access educational and wellness resources through the same platform. - The app includes sobriety milestone tracking, daily check-ins, ongoing encouragement, community updates, alumni activity, center news, reminders, resource access and support connections. - CRC said active clients can begin using select recovery tools during treatment and then move into alumni access at discharge. - Alumni get full access to the platform, including a peer community feed, member directory and alumni-specific engagement opportunities. - Active clients get personal recovery tools such as daily check-ins, sobriety tracking, milestone tracking, resources and events before formally transitioning into the alumni peer community at discharge. - Public access includes daily check-ins, a sobriety tracker, milestone tracking, the meeting finder, recovery resources and crisis support. - Public users do not get access to the private community feed, member directory or alumni-only engagement spaces. - CRC said the access model is meant to protect confidentiality while keeping peer spaces limited to people who completed treatment together. - The launch builds on CRC’s aftercare and alumni programming, including individual, group and family counseling, 12-step meeting connections, sober living referrals, outpatient and telehealth options and an alumni community of more than 200 people. - CRC said family and DUI program communities are next in line for the same tiered-access model. - California Recovery Center is a Joint Commission-accredited and California-licensed provider based in Roseville that serves clients throughout Northern California. - CRC says its broader treatment offerings include medical detoxification, residential inpatient treatment, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, outpatient, DUI programming and aftercare and alumni support. - The center says it maintains a 2:1 client-to-staff ratio and combines evidence-based care such as CBT, DBT and EMDR with holistic services including yoga, mindfulness, meditation and art therapy. - CRC is also a member of the National Association of Addiction Treatment Providers and is LegitScript certified. - The company’s website is Learn more.

Between the lines: - The app reflects a wider behavioral health trend: recovery support is increasingly being designed as a continuum, not a service that stops at discharge. - CRC is also using product design to separate private peer support from public self-help tools, which could make the app useful to more people without compromising confidentiality. - Mentesh framed the launch as a way to normalize ongoing recovery engagement before someone formally enters alumni status.

What's next: - CRC plans to expand the app’s tiered-access model to family and DUI program communities. - The center will likely use the app to keep alumni and clients engaged with ongoing resources, reminders and community updates over time.
