Follow-up Research
Hazelden's Butler Center for Research staff routinely contact alumni one, six, and 12 months after treatment to measure how well people are doing in their recovery program. This information allows us to monitor the quality of our care and guides us in our ongoing treatment improvement efforts. If you have recently completed a treatment program at Hazelden, you may receive a call from a staff member of the Butler Center for Research at Hazelden. We appreciate your help and support.
