Congratulations, Dr. Peggy Swarbrick Recipient of The Lisa Laitman Award

Laitman, like Dr. Swarbrick, is a lifelong visionary, advocate, and supporter of young adults in recovery, and the founder of RU's Recovery House, which opened in 1988 and is a nationally recognized collegiate recovery model.

Dr. Swarbrick is pictured (above right) at the recent RU Recovery House Graduation with Samantha Hernandez, a GSAPP Clinical PsyD student who is researching the recovery house community program.

CAS has a strong partnership with RURH, a 12-month, on-campus housing option that offers students in recovery from alcohol and/or drug dependence the opportunity to have a fulfilling residential college experience living within a supportive community.

Keith Murphy, Director, Alcohol and Other Drug Assistance Programs (ADAP) leads the Recovery House and is a valued member of the CAS Community Advisory Board.
