Session Details:
As the field of collegiate recovery continues to grow, research becomes exceedingly vital; however, this can be an intimidating and seemingly insurmountable task for some. Furthermore, studies indicate that it can take up to 17 years to translate research into practice. Yet, studies also indicate that collaborative partnerships can reduce this gap by engaging practitioners in the research process. Additionally, collaborative partnerships expand individual capacities, making research more accessible and manageable for collegiate recovery professionals. This presentation will explore the opportunities, methods, and benefits of collaborative research partnerships for collegiate recovery programs, while also addressing key considerations for the process.
