Collegiate Recovery Community
Housed in the Health Promotion Department, MSU’s Collegiate Recovery Community (CRC) serves students in or seeking recovery from alcohol and other drug addiction. Our mission is to provide a safe and supportive campus community in which students in recovery from addiction can achieve their academic, personal and professional goals. The CRC and its services are designed to empower students to thrive in the fullness of the college experience, free from alcohol and other drugs.
At MSU, the CRC has been the foundation of my social life and growth, allowing me to meet amazing, likeminded, and supportive people. I am very thankful for the CRC and all those who want to make it better.
