About MAI > History

The Morningside Academic Institute was established in the Fall 2006 by Brendan Bickley, our Director of Education, and Jana Triplett, Director of The College Program. Both Mr. Bickley and Mrs. Triplett bring years of experience in this field of combining drug addiction and alcohol treatment with college education. Morningside Recovery is a drug and alcohol extended care treatment program designed to meet the needs of individuals suffering from chemical dependency and/or a co-occurring disorder. Our facilities are located in coastal Newport Beach, California steps from the sand. The community of Newport Beach offers an ideal setting for beginning the process of recovery.
