 “In terms of working with the students, how important support is in recovery.  When it's not there, we see the results.  A student that gets out of treatment and goes back into college environment, his or her chances of staying sober are slim.  With recovery support system in place, it's neat to see that and see the success.  That is one of the things I learned here - the importance of recovery communities.”
