UBC Student Recovery Community (SRC)

• Get one-on-one peer support in a safe, private, confidential setting.
• Join a peer-based recovery support group and find community with other students navigating recovery.
• Write for the student-led blog.

I find that All Recovery Meetings and the team are the most accessible source of help on campus, compared to other (mental) health resources. The facilitators genuinely care about the students on a personal level! Every time I go to the drop-in hours, I feel like I am greeted by a friend who truly cares about me beyond my problems.

UBC Student in recovery

Join a peer support meeting, open to all UBC students who are in recovery or curious to explore their relationship with substance use and/or disordered eating, gaming, gambling, pornography, or other addictive behaviours. All pathways of recovery are welcomed and supported. Abstinence is not required for participation.

All meetings are held both in person and online, unless otherwise indicated. Please email src.recovery@ubc.ca or visit the SRC Instagram page for meeting times and room locations or Zoom links.

• The Queer All-Recovery Meeting
  This peer-based group welcomes all students who identify within the Queer umbrella and have lived experience of recovery, or are curious to explore their relationship substances and/or addictive behaviours.
• The Cannabis Meeting
  This meeting is for students who have lived experience of marijuana addiction or are curious about their relationship with marijuana. We gather in recognition that marijuana can be an addictive substance and thus us worthwhile to examine and explore one’s relationship with it. Abstinence is not a requirement.
• All Recovery Meeting
  Drop in to an inclusive group meeting for all students with lived experience of recovery or those who are curious to explore their relationship with substance and/or behavioural addiction.
• Disordered Eating All-Recovery Meeting
  If you are in recovery from disordered eating or are curious about navigating your relationship with food and body image, join this peer-based group meeting.
