Connection Recovery Success

Recovery support is within reach

Your first weeks and months clean and sober are critical. Honesty and accountability are key. A little extra support and guidance at the outset can help pave the way to recovery that lasts.


Connection services at the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation incorporate the most promising drug and alcohol addiction recovery support practices, including:

  • Intensive personal coaching and case management
  • Frequent phone contact with a recovery coach—for you and designated family members
  • Documented recovery compliance updates
  • Random drug testing for accountability (monitoring services)

These activities help to strengthen your recovery while also promoting peace of mind for your loved ones.

Your Connection Team

Your Connection team will lead you through three distinct phases based on emerging research about what makes recovery from alcohol and drug addiction last:

  • An initial focus on practical tasks: developing your support network, managing your time, following through with commitments
  • Ongoing identification of roadblocks related to your social, emotional, spiritual, financial and vocational wellbeing
  • Personal goal-setting and creating an action plan for reaching those goals

Connection is especially helpful if you:

  • Have been through treatment multiple times
  • Are facing a loss of a professional license
  • Are struggling with legal issues or custody matters
  • Are a student returning to college
  • Need additional accountability

Connection for Families

Through phone based coaching sessions with a licensed addiction counselor, families get the support they need when their emotional, physical and spiritual health has been compromised by a loved one’s addiction. Learn more about Connection for Families.
