Landmark's Students of Recovery Scholarship

Scholarship Sponsored by Landmark Recovery

Value: $500
Awards Available: 2

Across the nation, hundreds of thousands of students on college campuses struggle with addiction while managing class loads, social lives, and in some cases holding down part-time jobs. It is estimated that as much as 30% of college students who use drugs or alcohol meet the criteria for a substance use disorder, and according to the U.S. Surgeon General, only 1 in 10 of these individuals will wind up seeking treatment.

College can often be the first time that individuals are free from parental supervision, placed in a high-stress academic environment coupled with peer pressure and a high degree of personal responsibility for balancing work, school, and academics. It can be difficult for college students to speak openly about these issues, let alone find the support and services they need to stay sober and successful in their college careers.
