Abstract
The issue of substance use disorders among college students is a growing problem that has been widely studied and reported on in recent years. However, the experiences of black college students in recovery have been largely underrepresented. Although white college students tend to have higher rates of substance use, black college students face unique challenges in accessing resources that support recovery from substance use disorders. This article will highlight the experiences of black college students in recovery, the barriers they face, the importance of collegiate recovery community programs in addressing these barriers, and the need for more programs that cater to these experiences. Through an exploration of literature and current efforts, this article aims to emphasize the significance of collegiate recovery among black college students and a need for the implementation of culturally sensitive and responsive programs at historically black colleges and universities.
