Each and every student who passes through DVC and takes classes in the Addiction Studies program or completes the certificate and/or Associates of Science degree in Addiction Counseling leaves their own unique mark on the lives of other students and faculty. Some of these people stay in touch with other students and faculty long after they complete their studies - either helping other students succeed by offering encouragement and/or guidance, or by serving their communities and those who struggle with addiction problems.

At times, some of our graduates and/or current students have died. The following pages recognize those students who have passed that have touched our hearts and lives.
