Supporting Student Success through Recovery
Students Recover provides a range of programs designed to support students in higher education who are in or seeking recovery from substance use and other mental health issues. Our programs are tailored to meet the unique needs of college, trade and graduate students that have limited access to recovery support.
Mutual Aid Groups
We offer culturally responsive, peer-led mutual aid groups that focus on harm reduction and holistic wellness. These groups provide a space for students to support one another and build a strong sense of community.
Our Impact Areas
