What have you enjoyed about your ARHE fellowship so far?
I have enjoyed getting to know the other fellows and ARHE volunteers. Everyone has such great insight to share, and they have opened my eyes to a much larger world of recovery options and ideas.
What are you hoping to work on for ARHE or the collegiate recovery field?
I hope to be able to assist our executive director in running the entire organization smoothly. I am also very excited to be heading our new Student Ambassador Board.
Are there changes you would like to see in the collegiate recovery field overall?
I would like to see more equity and inclusion across the field. I also hope that discussions about harm reduction will be held at more institutions.
Do you have any words of advice for students in recovery?
Surround yourself with people who are kind, grateful, and want sobriety and are willing to work for it. The company you keep is important!
