My first in-person campus event since March 2020 --- and I couldn't think of an occasion that would bring more joy.
Let's celebrate @LionUpRecovery! ππ
#CollegiateRecovery π

Always an absolute pleasure to see @LionUpRecovery Assistant Director @Annette14708792!
Me, currently at the @LionUpRecovery Gratitude Breakfast...
Hear me: #CollegiateRecovery works. π
It's important that people know that recovery is possible. - Grace, a non-traditional aged @oursoutheastern grad, who will be working with homeless & addicted individuals in Baton Rouge.
*This*β is how we develop talent so that #LaProspers.

When I was 23 days sober, I met @madsallen -- through a project in one of my social work classes.
Today's the first day that it (graduation) feels real. - Sarah, who will be graduating next week + will be pursue her MSW.

Some people ask the question "Why #CollegiateRecovery?"
I think soon-to-be @LionUpRecovery + @oursoutheastern grad Grace reminds us of how life-changing this kind of programming can be.

I absolutely have to recognize the outstanding work of @oursoutheastern to ensure that their commitment to Excellence and Caring also includes an intentional focus for students in recovery.
I'm certain the watery eyes + tangible passion in the room was a result of those actions.
Students & Grads of @LionUpRecovery:
Thank YOU β for trusting @oursoutheastern, the @ulsystem, @LA_Regents, the @LADeptHealth & countless other community resources to get this RIGHT for you -- to provide the necessary access, support, and care on your higher education journey.
Congratulations to the Fall 2021 @LionUpRecovery graduates of @oursoutheastern! ππΎπππππΎ
#CollegiateRecovery
Did I mention that I was able to check out the new @LionUpRecovery space IN the Student Union?!
My #highered people understand just how prime THAT real estate is! π
#CollegiateRecovery
We also had the opportunity to discuss the future of #CollegiateRecovery in Louisiana--- in both helping to assist existing programs *AND* to expand programming to NEW campuses.
We CAN do this Louisiana! πͺπΎ
More on THAT next semester... stay tuned! π
