The Alcohol and Other Drug Assistance Program for Students (ADAPS) is a counseling and information program for students who are concerned about their drinking or use of other drugs, about a friends use/abuse, or about drug or alcohol use in their family.

Nine programs are available:

  • Consultation and outreach
  • Evaluation and assessment
  • Individual alcohol/ drug counseling
  • Alcohol/other drug awareness groups

For students with questions about their drinking/drug use:

  • Recovery support groups
    For students in recovery to provide support and meet other students in recovery.
  • Recovery housing
    On-campus housing for Rutgers students who are in recovery from a chemical dependency or grew up in an addicted family or are in a related recovery. It is a supportive environment for students who live abstinent from alcohol and other drugs.
  • Early Recovery Program
  • Nicotine Dependence Program
  • Adult Children of Alcoholics/Addicts group
    For students whose parent, other family members or close friend is an alcoholic or drug addict.

Services are confidential.

There is no fee.

How to get help:

Students with concerns about alcohol or drug use, either their own or someone they are close to, are encouraged to call and talk with an Alcohol/Drug Counselor.

The Alcohol and Other Drug Assistance Program for Students provides confidential consultation services to faculty and staff to assist them in referring students.

Importance of early treatment:

The primary goal of our program is early identification and treatment of alcohol and drug abuse problems and alcoholism/drug addiction. There is much greater chance for recovery when a problem is detected early.

Care for your friends.

Care for yourself.
