The Collegiate Recovery Community (CRC) continues to grow and expand at Nebraska. What started as weekly recovery meetings in Husker Hall is planned to expand into a living environment this fall.

Meetings and gatherings are an essential opportunity for students in recovery or considering recovery to express themselves and learn from others. Meetings provide a wealth of information regarding tactics to maintain sobriety and self-improvement. In addition to meetings, Husker Hall will serve as the main hub for CRC activities and provide a safe and welcoming ecosystem of well-being. CRC organizers are confident that the weekly meetings, social activities, and events will foster an environment dedicated to academics, self-improvement and recovery.

"Recovery doesn't need to be any more difficult than it already is and that is why we are here to lend a hand to anyone in need of our support," says Jon Haag, a founding members of the CRC.

As the weather improves, the community will add a new Friday night event. Students will gather from 8 to 10 p.m. for food, conversation and games. Anyone interested in recovery or considering recovery is encouraged to attend on Friday nights at Husker Hall.

In celebration of National Collegiate Recovery Day on April 15, the community will highlight their contributions on campus and continue to promote the new living opportunity in Husker Hall. You can get involved in supporting the CRC in three ways:

  1. Wear purple on April 15 to increase awareness and show your support for students in recovery.
  2. Make a gift to support the Collegiate Recovery Community at Nebraska.
  3. Help build awareness by recommending the program to students you know who would benefit from the supportive environment of the CRC.
