Did You Know!?!?!?!!

 

AOD and The PARC

 

California University proudly houses a Prevention Awareness Recovery Center (PARC) on campus for students who are in recovery from drug and alcohol addiction, as well as students who are allies and supporters of those in recovery. The PARC is a safe, worry free lounge area where students are welcome to hang out, meet other students in recovery, and hold Cal Clean & Sober groups. The PARC is also full of resources and referrals for students in need of support or treatment services.

 

An Alcohol and Other Drug Education Specialist works with the entire campus and local communities in the creation and execution of a comprehensive strategy to reduce underage and dangerous drinking as well as other drug use. Options@CalU and the California Alcohol and Other Drug Coalition are just two ways the goals are carried out. Options@CalU is a group of volunteer peer educators who educate and challenge their peers regarding the decisions they make about drugs and alcohol use. The California Alcohol and Other Drug Coalition is comprised of members from the university and local communities who combine resources and knowledge in an effort to change the culture regarding the use of alcohol and other drugs. To be a part of either of these programs or for questions regarding AOD prevention at California University of Pennsylvania, contact the AOD office at 724-938-4775.
