  • 4/15 Wear Purple: Support National Collegiate Recovery

    We are excited to share with you the inaugural National Collegiate Recovery Day coming up on Wednesday, April 15, 2020. This day will be an annual celebration that coincides with the anniversary of the founding of the Association of Recovery in Higher Education (ARHE) which was April 15, 2020. The UConn Recovery Community is a proud institutional member.

    National Collegiate Recovery Day is an opportunity to celebrate collegiate recovery across the country, increase awareness about collegiate recovery programs (CRPs), and shine a spotlight on the key staff, students, and other supporters who make this work possible.
