The Alumni Association provides lifelong recovery support to the participants and graduates of the Morris County Recovery Court

Hear what some of our graduates say!

This is probably one of the best things I’ve accomplished so far. It means that I have found a way to live a clean and sober life. It means that I’ve made a choice to completely change my way of thinking. The things that I have gotten back in my life are amazing. My family now trusts me and they actually want me to be around. I show up when I say I’m going to show up. Graduating from Drug Court means that I get to be the best mom I can be.

Seeing how happy my family and loved ones are now giving me a feeling of accomplishment that can’t be matched by anything else. I have finally become the man my family was waiting for me to become. I can handle any situation head-on now without running to drugs to fix them when in reality it was just making things even worse.

Throughout Drug Court I had my ups and downs and learned so much about myself. I’ve learned so much about my addiction, and now have the tools to stay sober. I gained a wonderful sponsor and support network. I’m now able to help others that are struggling, and it also helps my sobriety as well. I’ve gained trust back with my family and I’m slowly regaining a relationship with my son.
