About the Program
Sober Redbirds is a student organization that offers peer-based support and is sponsored by the Dean of Students Office. Sober Redbirds is for students who are in or have an interest in recovery, are substance free, or are allies of these two populations. There is a weekly recovery group on campus, as well as lounge hours. Many AA and other self-help groups surround campus. Recovery coaching is available. There are bi-weekly sober social events. Sober Redbirds also engages in biweekly outreach events that serve to reduce stigma for substance use disorders and recovery from them. Students can choose to live on the substance free floor in the residence halls and can self-select roommates with desirable characteristics for recovery. Staffing consists of a part-time coordinator and a part-time graduate assistant. The group is small in membership size.
