Formed by University of Oklahoma students in recovery in August 2018, Students in Recovery is an organization providing a safe, sober environment for students currently in recovery, those supporting recovery and those who are seeking recovery at OU. We support all forms of recovery and encourage self-determination and fun in recovery by way of sober tailgates, town halls, organized community work and education about all forms of addiction. Students in Recovery hosts weekly in-person all-recovery peer-led and supported twelve-step meetings for the OU community.
