The Washington State Therapeutic Courts Alumni Association (WSTCAA) was created in 2024 with a clear purpose: to build a strong, statewide community where therapeutic court graduates can stay connected, supported, and empowered in their recovery.

What began as a shared vision among a small group of alumni has grown into a nonprofit dedicated not only to supporting graduates, but also to advocating for therapeutic courts across Washington. Our lived experience gives us a powerful voice, and we use it to champion the programs that changed our lives and continue to change lives every day.

WSTCAA brings together therapeutic court alumni from every county, offering connection, purpose, and ongoing support long after graduation. We believe that when people with lived experience unite, they create a ripple effect of hope and resilience that strengthens families, communities, and the entire state.
