The ITRC looks forward to partnering with the UCSD Collegiate Recovery Program.
They provide safe space and supportive community for students in recovery or seeking recovery from addiction. Students at any stage of recovery and at any point in their academic journeys are welcome.
Students can engage with other UCSD students, come to a support group meetings, attend a sober social event or just get in the loop about volunteer opportunities and upcoming activities.
Join us (virtually) for conversations about our experiences as Black women & femmes and connect with others on campus. We will meet even week Thursdays from 3:30-5:00pm; stop by when you can and stay for as long as you want. Register at tinyurl.com/bwcwc2020
