Making College Work While in Recovery

  • Covenant Presbyterian Church, "The Barn" 124 Old Farms Road Simsbury, CT, 06070 United States (map)

This presentation will also be available virtually via Zoom. You will receive the invitation after registering through the link below.

For most students, attending college is an exciting time, a time for gaining independence, making new friends, and transitioning into adulthood.  For others, it can be overwhelming, especially for someone recovering from a substance use disorder.  There are many new challenges to face, like fitting in with the other students, maintaining class requirements, and carrying out responsibilities without the help of a parent’s oversight.  Attending college also often means dealing with the increased availability of alcohol and other substances.

Attendees will learn how to have a traditional college experience while remaining abstinent, and keeping abstinence as the top priority while performing academically, as well as campus resources and other tips.
