April 14th – 18th, 2025

Celebrating 15 Years of ARHE

Collegiate Recovery Week - Notice

It’s the 15th anniversary of the founding of ARHE!

15 Years of Growth, Rooted in Support, Branching into the Future

Welcome to the official webpage for Collegiate Recovery Week, celebrating “15 Years of Growth: Rooted in Support, Branching into the Future.” This week is dedicated to honoring the commitment, resilience, and achievements of our community as we reflect on 15 transformative years. From our beginnings rooted in collective support, we’ve grown stronger, extending our branches to reach new heights and impact even more lives. Here, you’ll find information on events, awareness initiatives, and ways to get involved as we celebrate the past and look forward to a future full of promise and possibility. Join us in marking this milestone and the many more to come!

What is Collegiate Recovery Week?

The Association of Recovery in Higher Education (ARHE) was founded on April 15, 2010 and has since recognized April 15th as Collegiate Recovery Day. As the number of programs have grown, so have the celebrations and so now, we celebrate Collegiate Recovery Week – creating a full week of programming, social media campaigns, and opportunities to build connection! 

Collegiate Recovery Week is an opportunity to host events on campus, celebrate the joys of recovery, share stories, and uplift one another through community! 

What is your CRP, business or organization planning this year to celebrate collegiate recovery week?

ARHE would like to celebrate Collegiate Recovery Week with everyone and highlight the exciting initiatives that you are doing on your campuses or in your communities! If you would like to share an event with us to promote on our social media accounts leading up to CRW 2025, please fill out this 5-6 minutes form to provide us with all of the details we need to highlight your event! Deadline extended: Please complete the form by April 11, 2025 to ensure that your event can be posted on our website, newsletter, and social accounts. (It may take 1-2 business days to appear on the website). 

***Collegiate Recovery Week 2025 is April 14-18, but events outside of this time frame that are open for others to register and join to celebrate collegiate recovery can also be submitted, provided they are submitted before the event. 

#WearPurple on April 15th!

Showcase your photos and selfies on social media using the hashtags #WearPurple, #CollegiateRecoveryWeek, and #CollegiateRecoveryDay.

#WearPurple, #CollegiateRecoveryWeek, #CollegiateRecoveryDay.

Tag @collegiaterecovery in your photos and we will like and share them on our socials as well!

Don’t have purple? No problem! 

Purchase a purple tshirt, sweater, or coffee mug  as part of our one year ONLY, limited edition fundraiser for the 15th anniversary of ARHE! 

Collegiate Recovery Quilt

Last year, we introduced an inspiring project aimed at celebrating our collegiate recovery communities. This year, we are continuing to collect squares for a Collegiate Recovery Hope Quilt. We’re inviting each collegiate recovery program to contribute a 14″ by 14″ square to be incorporated into a large quilt. This quilt will serve as a visual representation of our profession, showcasing the strength, resilience, and creativity of our members. The combination of squares will create a powerful symbol of solidarity and support. Your unique contributions will not only add to the beauty of the quilt but also highlight the collective impact of our efforts in fostering recovery and wellness on college campuses. Let’s come together and weave our stories into this extraordinary tapestry of hope and healing!

The Collegiate Recovery Quilt will be displayed at the Annual Conference, and can form an ongoing legacy of programs contributing to its pattern over time.

Depending on your preferences, there are multiple ways to participate:

  • Send us a CRP-branded t-shirt and we will cut it to size
  • Send us a custom 14”x14”  fabric square with your own custom design!

To submit a square, please mail it to: P.O. Box 1541, Kennesaw, GA 30156 and email [email protected] so that we know we can expect a square from you.

Please mail your squares by May 2, 2025 to have them included in the quilt displayed at this year’s conference! Squares mailed after this date will be added to the quilt after the conference. A webpage will be developed to track the progress of the Quilt after the annual conference this year (2025)!

Support Collegiate Recovery Conference Scholarships!

 

#CollegiateRecovery Week is when we celebrate both the founding of ARHE and the collegiate recovery programs that comprise our network. Proceeds from #CollegiateRecoveryWeek this year will support a scholarship fund for our annual conference.

Over 30 collegiate recovery programs across the US recently lost their funding sources, affecting the professionals and students who make up those programs and services. ARHE is working to assist those affected by this funding loss to still attend the conference. Peer support means many things, and our conference is a place where we gather as peers and colleagues to learn from and support one another.

Please share on your socials, if you feel comfortable, so we can increase awareness and try to get more people to the conference!

Collegiate Recovery Week Social Media Toolkit

At ARHE, we envision a world where every student has access to recovery supports, and every person in recovery has access to higher education; a world where no student has to sacrifice one for the other. Celebrating collegiate recovery week brings schools and programs together as we share resources, connect with other schools, and empower one another. Together, we can realize this vision of supporting students while raising awareness of and support for collegiate recovery everywhere.

How to Use the Toolkit

Use the following social media posts to help spread awareness of collegiate recovery week and share hopeful messages with students in recovery.

The toolkit was created and designed to be shared with and by collegiate recovery programs, partner organizations, allies, etc. All materials can be downloaded and shared and some material can be customized.

  • Copy, download, and share key messages, graphics, or promotional materials as desired to fit the needs of your audience and channels.
  • Use our hashtags, including #CollegiateRecoveryWeek, when sharing any collegiate recovery related content.

Use our toolkit as a resource, in tandem with your own tools and best practices, to create a unified message of support and hope.

The schedule is a suggested outline and does not need to be followed, if you would prefer a different order for your graphics. You may choose to share all graphics and messages or select one “series” to post.
