Historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) have long been places where students of color have been able to find community, support, and a sense of home as they move through the college experience. Like most college experiences, challenges and concerns are present, including those surrounding substance use, addiction, and recovery. Today, HBCUs continue to provide refuge to students of color with added addiction and recovery support through the expansion into the realm of collegiate recovery. Collegiate recovery community programs (CRC/Ps) at HBCUs differ from those found at predominantly White institutions (PWIs) and may offer insight into engaging students of color on other campuses. This article is a brief overview of the first established CRC/P at an HBCU. Implications for research, development, and replication are discussed.
