About the New Beginnings Alumni Association

Formally established as a 403.b non-profit organization in 2003, the Alumni Association has over 3,000 active members who are dedicated to promoting recovery through sponsorship, outreach, and community events.  The Alumni Association is managed by a volunteer Board of Directors with over 60 years of sobriety.

New Beginnings Minnesota Alumni Association is a fellowship of men and women that support patients and their families who have been in the residential program in Waverly.  Anyone can come to the monthly Alumni Speaker Dinners, come early for the Alumni Board Meeting.  Get on a committee for one of many events, be a first contact for patients leaving treatment or come to enjoy the speaker dinners.

Mission Statement

We function solely to provide sober support for patients and their families who have completed treatment at EOSIS New Beginnings. We are here in the spirit of fun and fellowship to celebrate recovery, share it with each of you, provide contacts for clients graduating treatment and to provide opportunities for service to all alumni.
