The substance abuse treatment, education, and prevention program is designed to serve NSU students. The program focuses on prevention and education, but also provides treatment and support for individuals having problems with drugs or alcohol. In addition to individual counseling for people concerned with alcohol and drug problems, counselors in the office serve as referrals to other in-patient care facilities in the area.
Counselors are also available to do group presentations on topics dealing with healthy choices.
Another aspect of the program is the sponsorship of a student group on campus. This is a chartered organization designed to promote healthy choices among college students. It is open to all students and does not include a membership fee or dues.
