The Association of Recovery in Higher Education (ARHE) was founded on April 15, 2010 and has since recognized April 15th as Collegiate Recovery Day. As the number of programs have grown, so have the celebrations and so now, we celebrate Collegiate Recovery Week – creating a full week of programming, social media campaigns, and opportunities to build connection!  Collegiate Recovery Week is an opportunity to host events on campus, celebrate the joys of recovery, share stories, and uplift one another through community!  Join Nevada's Recovery and Prevention in celebrating National Collegiate Recovery Week by wearing #PurpleForRecovery and joining us for one of our many Collegiate Recovery Week events.
