Substance Use and Recovery Support Groups
This group is open to any student identifying as being in recovery or are recovery-curious. The Student Support and Advocacy Center supports students in recovery as well as allies. Groups provide a space to talk about common experiences, to process the impacts of day-to-day recovery, and to connect to others in recovery. This group is not a therapeutic group or a substitute for therapy.
