The Center for the Study of Addiction and Recovery

Collegiate Recovery

The Center for the Study of Addiction and Recovery is commited to achieving six primary goals:

  • Quality, long-term recovery for the student population through the creation of a Collegiate Recovery Community.
  • Development of resiliency in recovering students who often lack the personal, social, academic, and professional skills necessary to be successful.
  • Education about the disease of addiction and effective strategies for the prevention and treatment of its consequences.
  • Service within the university, local, state, and national communities.
  • Creation of an effective replication model that will allow other institutions of higher education to offer similar programs to positively impact their recovering students.
  • Research that impacts the way addiction is viewed from an individual, familial, and social perspective, and which will improve treatment success nationwide.
