Alcohol and Drug Support
Student Wellness provides consultations on alcohol and other drug use. Confidential consultations are available with our substance abuse counselor or health educators for any questions you may have or issues you may be experiencing.
Student Wellness does not offer treatment for substance use dependence, but can refer to an agency in the community if treatment is needed.
Costs
General consultations and self-referrals are free for UI students. There is a charge for mandated consultations.
There is a charge for programs or evaluations that are mandated and/or require documentation of completion.
Location
Consultations are available virtually (via Zoom) or at Westlawn.
If you require a private space to conduct an appointment virtually, you can reserve space on campus.
Effective Wednesday, March 8th 2023, face masks will be optional for all in our facilities, except for those who have symptoms of a respiratory virus, for which masks remain required. Masks are welcome for anyone who chooses to wear one.
