An investigation of collegiate recovery programs (CRPs) showcased CRPs as a vital student support service in traditional and online learning environments. Comparing standards for in-person versus online delivery showed equivalence in services consistent with the learner-centered approach to higher education. Despite COVID-19 restrictions, CRPs emerged as laudable examples of robust, creative problem-solving in distance learning by moving all facets of their programs online. Implications for the field of higher education include a replicable example for support services and justification for expansion and proliferation of CRP services for students attending college both in person and via distance learning.
