Collegiate recovery communities (CRC’s, sometimes called collegiate recovery programs – CRP’s) are supportive peer communities on campus for students in recovery. CRC’s allow students to connect with other students in recovery who understand the unique stressors that college has on recovery. There are currently 7 Missouri campuses with active programs.
