A Collegiate Recovery Community (CRC), also called a Collegiate Recovery Program (CRP) provides a college student in recovery (CSR) an opportunity to attend college with a network that supports their choice to remain free from addictive substances and other addictive behaviors. While research has established the value of CRPs on college campuses, less is known about the connection of a CRP and the role of family through the recovery process. This poster will review the primary components of a CRP and provide findings from a qualitative study seeking to understand how CRPs can involve family. The findings of the study also provide practical application for how CRCs can connect with the families of students in recovery to enhance the recovery process. The key takeaways of this poster include presenting information related to the CRC and evidence for how CRCs can support family members and college students in recovery.
