About CYAAR

We support students in recovery by helping them maintain balance in their academic, work and
social life to create a wellness strategy that sustains long term recovery

"A collegiate recovery program (CRP) is a College or University-provided, supportive environment within
the campus culture that reinforces the decision to engage in a lifestyle of recovery from substance use."
