Central PA Campus Networking Meeting

Professionals working with college students are fully aware of the use of stimulants, like Ritalin and Adderall, as “study drugs”. A recent study from the Journal of American College Health sheds some new light on the relationship between stimulant use and other substance use, like alcohol and marijuana, among college students, as well as concerns related to mental health.

Join Caron’s Campus Engagement team and other campus professionals in southeastern PA to explore the latest research and share ideas about how to best support students in their health and well-being.

Who should attend this program: We welcome the perspectives and experiences of campus counselors, social workers, alcohol and other drug coordinators along with leadership from Student Life, Wellness, and Counseling departments to join us during this session. This is a space for collaboration between Deans, Directors, and direct services professionals to tackle collegiate substance use together.
