Recovery on Campus Alberta is a collaborative initiative dedicated to creating supportive environments on post-secondary campuses where individuals in recovery from substance use, addiction, or mental health challenges can thrive.

The mission of ROC Alberta is to co-create, champion, and sustain recovery programs that respect and celebrate multiple recovery pathways. It aims to serve all campus members, including students, faculty, and staff, across Alberta and beyond.

ROC Alberta seeks to create a culture of recovery on campuses by promoting well-being, reducing barriers, and empowering individuals to thrive in a supportive community.

 

 "By recovering out loud, we are changing the conversation about recovery so that campus members are no longer suffering in silence."

At the MRU Recovery on Campus chapter, we endeavor to:

• Foster a supportive environment where students, staff, and faculty in recovery feel welcomed and valued.
• Provide accessible resources to aid individuals in their recovery journey, including peer support, educational programming, and community partnerships.
• Cultivate awareness and understanding about recovery, reducing stigma, and encouraging open dialogue about substance use and mental health.
• Support and celebrate diverse recovery pathways, recognizing that each person's journey is unique and deserves respect and encouragement.

By nurturing a culture of inclusivity and hope, ROC at MRU aims to empower campus members to thrive in recovery and contribute to a stronger, healthier community.
