The Collegiate Recovery Community offers:

  • Connections and referrals to local and campus resources
  • A supportive community for students seeking or maintaining recovery
  • A sober space for students to spend time and feel supported
  • Recovery, academic, and social supports

How do I know if CRC is right for me?

  • Do you identify as a person in recovery from substance use?
  • Have you considered quitting the use of substances?
  • Is your substance use affecting your work, academics, or relationships?
  • Do you use substances out of boredom or due to stress?
  • Do you ever regret or not remember your actions after use?
  • Are you someone who doesn’t use substances and want to meet others who also do not use?

If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, then the Collegiate Recovery Community is a place for you!
