The RecoverED Project clubs work to aid us in volunteer based events, programs, and projects. Additionally, the main function of the club is to provide a space away from diet-culture that promotes recovery values on campus. The clubs are not support groups, but the goal is to bring recovery-driven projects to your campus. For more information, please view the “Clubs and Chapters” tab or reach out to the contact below.
