Aftercare & Recovery

Relapse isn't failure. It's a signal. Is your software still listening after discharge?

Forty to sixty percent of people treated for a substance use disorder return to use within a year, on par with hypertension and asthma. NIDA calls relapse a prompt to re-engage care, not proof of failure. Most treatment software stops paying attention at discharge, and that gap is where recovery is won or lost.
