“…Students in recovery arrive on college campuses that are often "flooded with alcohol and drugs" and peers who use them, significant risk factors for relapse (Finch & Karakos, 2014;Russell, Cleveland, & Wiebe, 2010). A 2005 study found that 68% of college students reported alcohol use in the last month, and 37% reported using illicit drugs in the As CRPs spread, there is a growing need for research to establish best practices for campus-based recovery services (Smock, Baker, Harris, & D'Sauza, 2011).…”

“…A 2005 study found that 68% of college students reported alcohol use in the last month, and 37% reported using illicit drugs in the As CRPs spread, there is a growing need for research to establish best practices for campus-based recovery services (Smock, Baker, Harris, & D'Sauza, 2011). The growing quantitative and qualitative evidence base is shedding light on the potential that CRPs have to prevent relapse and promote academic success (Cleveland, Harris, Baker, Herbert, & Dean, 2007), but inquiry related to CRPs is still in early stages (Finch & Karakos, 2014) and limited both in scope and context. In addition, there has been a call for additional research into the experience of addiction recovery among students on college campuses (Laudet & Humphreys, 2013).…”

“…In response to this challenge, Collegiate Recovery Programs (CRPs) have evolved to provide campus-based support services to college students in recovery. The first CRP was established at Brown University in 1977, and more than 100 higher education institutions and recovery high schools now offer some level of recovery support (Finch & Karakos, 2014). Roughly, two to five new CRP programs emerge each year (Laudet & Humphreys, 2013).…”

In response to this challenge, Collegiate Recovery Programs (CRPs) have evolved to provide campus-based support services to college students in recovery. The first CRP was established at Brown University in 1977, and more than 100 higher education institutions and recovery high schools now offer some level of recovery support (Finch & Karakos, 2014). Roughly, two to five new CRP programs emerge each year (Laudet & Humphreys, 2013). CRPs currently vary in the services they offer, but a comprehensive CRP incorporates a range of educational, peer, community, and family supports, utilizing a systems-based model for recovery (Harris, Baker, Kimball, & Shumway, 2008). Example resources include 12-step support groups, counseling services, academic advising, service opportunities, and informational seminars (Harper, 2013).

“…Continuing care options that address the multiple socialecological needs of youth in recovery, are therefore likely to successfully support youths' recovery needs. For example, RHSs, which aim to support students' social and community capital by fostering social connectedness with sober peers, supportive school staff, and family members, have shown positive effects in prolonging abstinence from substance use during recovery (Finch and Karakos, 2014;Finch et al, 2018;Tanner-Smith et al, 2019, 2020. Other approaches drawing on integrated and holistic care models providing tailored therapeutic services to adolescents in recovery from SUDs (e.g., Latimer et al, 2000) may thus be similarly effective in addressing the numerous issues facing these adolescents.…”

Social-Ecological Predictors of Opioid Use Among Adolescents With Histories of Substance Use Disorders

et al. 2021

Adolescent opioid misuse is a public health crisis, particularly among clinical populations of youth with substance misuse histories. Given the negative and often lethal consequences associated with opioid misuse among adolescents, it is essential to identify the risk and protective factors underlying early opioid misuse to inform targeted prevention efforts. Understanding the role of parental risk and protective factors is particularly paramount during the developmental stage of adolescence. Using a social-ecological framework, this study explored the associations between individual, peer, family, community, and school-level risk and protective factors and opioid use among adolescents with histories of substance use disorders (SUDs). Further, we explored the potential moderating role of poor parental monitoring in the associations between the aforementioned risk and protective factors and adolescent opioid use. Participants included 294 adolescents (Mage = 16 years; 45% female) who were recently discharged from substance use treatment, and their parents (n = 323). Results indicated that lifetime opioid use was significantly more likely among adolescents endorsing antisocial traits and those whose parents reported histories of substance abuse. Additionally, adolescents reporting more perceived availability of substances were significantly more likely to report lifetime opioid use compared to those reporting lower perceived availability of substances. Results did not indicate any significant moderation effects of parental monitoring on any associations between risk factors and lifetime opioid use. Findings generally did not support social-ecological indicators of opioid use in this high-risk population of adolescents, signaling that the social-ecological variables tested may not be salient risk factors among adolescents with SUD histories. We discuss these findings in terms of continuing care options for adolescents with SUD histories that target adolescents’ antisocial traits, perceived availability of substances, and parent histories of substance abuse, including practical implications for working with families of adolescents with SUD histories.

“…There are over 11,000 licensed or certified substance use treatment programs in the United States, some of which are designated specifically for adolescents (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, 2012), and there are various options for continuing care support following treatment. Options for adolescents include case management, group meetings (e.g., alternative peer groups and mutual aid support groups), and even high schools and collegiate programs designed specifically for students in recovery (Finch & Karakos, 2014).…”

This article introduces the special thematic issue, which includes multiple and diverse perspectives to illustrate how youth treatment and recovery from substance use/dependence/misuse is approached and studied internationally. Although treatment and recovery services are available to and in use by youth across the world, this introduction explains that there is a noticeable gap in literature documenting the continuum of care for this vulnerable population. This introductory piece presents a synopsis of the articles in the issue, which address group treatment and recovery supports internationally and multi-culturally from a youth treatment and recovery lens. The articles offer an integration of international and diverse adolescent recovery supports, including those in Canada, Norway and the United States, and add to the larger body of recovery literature.
