Students in recovery need to have a sense of belonging, a sense of connection, and being part of a larger community that can support them.
College can be a challenging time for many, but for students in recovery, it presents unique hurdles. In this episode of 'Scope of Practice', host Bruce Elliot Donovan chats with Dr. Kimberly Boulden, Senior Director of SAFE Campuses at the SAFE Project, about the crucial role collegiate recovery programs play in supporting these students. Dr.
Boulden sheds light on how universities can foster a sense of belonging and connection for students in recovery through initiatives like sober dorms and student development programs. However, it's not all smooth sailing. Admission barriers and the need for more inclusive approaches are significant challenges that universities must address. Dr. Boulden also highlights the importance of having dedicated staff to support these initiatives, ensuring that students in recovery have the resources they need to thrive.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding how to better support college students on their recovery journey.
