Who is the program for?

The program is for any Marquette student that identifies as being in recovery from substance use 

What is recovery?

We don't define recovery as it's a very personal designation. Common elements could include abstaining from drug and alcohol use, improving personal health and wellness, living a self-directed life, being of service, etc. 

When and where are the recovery meetings?

  • Friday Community Lunch at 12pm in Community Room in Holthusen Hall (When you come up the elevator or nearby stairs to 2nd floor, turn left and the room is on your left)
    • Marquette students only
    • Lunch provided! 
  • Thursday "Young and Recovering" group of Alcoholics Anonymous, 7pm meeting in the Gesu Parish Center, Fr. Herian Hall (lower level)
    • This is an AA meeting in Milwaukee we are helping to start. It is not Marquette-run, but is a great resource.

What is Recovery Coaching and how do I sign up?

“A recovery coach is someone who is trained and interested in promoting recovery by removing barriers and obstacles to recovery by serving as a personal guide and mentor for people who are recovering or looking for recovery,” according to The Connecticut Community for Addiction Recovery (CCAR).

Recovery coaching is a partnership and a strengths-based support that helps individuals in all types of recovery, including those with substance use disorder, mental health, or dual diagnosis issues.You can sign up by clicking here!
