New center hopes to offer support and accountability to UT Arlington students recovering from alcohol, drug addiction
ARLINGTON, Texas -- The University of Texas at Arlington will launch a new Center for Students in Recovery this fall to provide support, resources and a safe environment for students who are recovering from alcoholism or drug addiction. The center will operate under the UT Arlington Division of Student Affairs and be funded in part by a $100,000 grant from The University of Texas System Board of Regents. The board allocated $1 million toward the establishment of Collegiate Recovery Centers at eight of the System’s nine academic institutions last fall.
