Collegiate Recovery at UGA
Recovery is possible. And fun. Let us show you how.
At the CRC, we believe that recovery is possible at any stage in life. Our community exists and works so that students don’t have to choose between recovery and education. We offer supports and events to help students not only seek and maintain recovery, but also have fun while doing so. If you are a student in recovery, or interested in starting a recovery journey, email Ayesha.alakhdar@uga.edu to set up an appointment for an information session.
