Abstract

ABSTRACT Student recovery programs are an emerging trend across university campuses in Canada, yet little is known about the experiences of students who utilize these programs. Canada’s first student recovery program launched in 2019, with six additional launching shortly thereafter. The current study offers a first look at the student experience in recovery programs at the first Canadian institutions to offer recovery support on campus. We used qualitative methods to examine individual recovery trajectories, program participation, stigma, barriers to recovery on campus, and the impact of a campus-based recovery program on various areas of their lives. Our findings highlight three main themes: (i) inclusivity and diversity of the programs, (ii) increasing recovery capital and dimensions of well-being, and (iii) reducing barriers to recovery on campus. The results inform how Canadian student recovery programs meet the needs of their students and identify areas for improvement using a recovery-informed lens to center the lived experiences of students in recovery. Findings from this initial study may drive the development of future student recovery programs at Canadian institutions and inform new initiatives by existing programs outside of Canada.

加拿大学生康复项目参与者经历的解释现象学分析

学生康复计划是加拿大大学校园的一种新兴趋势，但人们对利用这些计划的学生的经历知之甚少。加拿大的第一个学生康复计划于2019年启动，此后不久又启动了六个。目前的研究提供了第一次看到学生在加拿大的第一个机构提供校园康复支持的康复项目的经验。我们使用定性的方法来检查个人的康复轨迹、项目参与、耻辱、校园康复的障碍，以及校园康复项目对他们生活各个领域的影响。我们的研究结果突出了三个主要主题:(i)项目的包容性和多样性，(ii)增加恢复资本和福祉的维度，以及(iii)减少校园恢复的障碍。结果告知加拿大学生康复计划如何满足学生的需求，并使用康复知情镜头确定需要改进的领域，以康复学生的生活经历为中心。这项初步研究的发现可能会推动加拿大机构未来学生康复计划的发展，并为加拿大以外现有计划的新举措提供信息。
