Program Abstract:
Emerging research on Collegiate Recovery Programs (CRPs) can provide valuable information about how to deliver the most comprehensive services to their populations. Understanding the unique needs of students in recovery and roles of CRP employees can offer context to guide informed, responsive programming and best practices in local settings. Thematic, qualitative data from two distinct queries will present specific needs of students in recovery along with how student CRP employees view their responsibilities and successes.
