Recovery is often viewed as an individual journey, but supportive communities and social connections are key to long-term healing. For college students in recovery, a sense of belonging helps sustain recovery and reduce stigma.

In this webinar, Olivia Pape will discuss how recovery-friendly environments and peer support help students thrive in recovery.

Participants will learn:

  • Why social connection and peer support is essential for recovery
  • How supportive campus environments improve recovery options
  • Strategies for creating recovery-friendly communities in higher education

This event is part of the Resilient, Engaged & Active Community Health (REACH) project, funded by the Substance Use and Mental Health Services Administration.
