Abstract:
|
Academic advisors navigate interactions with a variety of student populations. One such population in need of more support is students in recovery or who may be impacted by substance use. This session explores ways in which advisors can incorporate recovery allyship into their practices to create an encouraging environment for all students. Given the increasing amount of fatal substance overdoses and the party culture often associated with college life, advisors must know how to communicate about and support recovery efforts. Through interactive discussions and real-world scenarios, attendees will leave the session knowing how to use person-first language, connect students to recovery resources, promote allyship across their campuses, and develop a recovery-friendly pledge that can be used when advising students impacted by substance use. |
