Session Description
"Individuals 18-25 years old have rates of substance use disorder two to three times greater than older adults, and comprise 20% of addiction treatment patients in the US. Therefore, it follows that universities are increasingly offering innovative recovery support services" (Recovery Research Institute). For students with substance use challenges or those in recovery, Collegiate Recovery Programs (CRPs) can make the difference between thriving and continued struggles. Learn about connecting students to CRPs from regional professionals.
