Recovery in Motion

Welcome to the official webpage for Collegiate Recovery Week, celebrating “Recovery in Motion.” This year, we honor 16 years of ARHE and the incredible momentum our community has built – through advocacy, visibility, and the daily work of supporting students in recovery across campuses. Recovery in higher education has never been static; it moves through connection, courage, and collective action, carrying us forward as programs expand, partnerships grow, and more students find hope and belonging. Here, you’ll find information on events, awareness initiatives, and ways to get involved as we celebrate how far we’ve come – and continue building a future where recovery is recognized, supported, and thriving on every campus. Join us in keeping recovery in motion!

Collegiate Recovery Week Social Media Toolkit

This year’s Collegiate Recovery Week theme – Recovery in Motion – honors the energy, growth, and forward movement of recovery in higher education. Across campuses, students, staff, and advocates are creating spaces where recovery is seen, celebrated, and supported, and where pursuing a degree never has to come at the expense of wellbeing. This social media toolkit is built to help programs strengthen that movement by sharing consistent messages, sparking campus-wide engagement, and highlighting the resources that make recovery possible. Together, through visibility and advocacy, we can shift campus culture, expand access, and keep collegiate recovery moving forward – one story, one connection, and one community at a time.

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.
