Center for Wellbeing

University of Tennessee, Chattanooga

Salary Range: $50,000 - $53,000

The Assistant Director for AOD Prevention and Recovery, under the supervision of the Director of the Center for Wellbeing, is responsible for developing, coordinating, and evaluating substance misuse prevention programs/initiatives for the UTC community. The position will improve the existing substance misuse prevention offerings on the campus, assess their impact, and assist with campus reports related to alcohol and drug misuse. The Assistant Director will also be responsible for coordination of the Mocs Recovery Program that is available free of charge to UTC students in all phases of recovery from addiction to alcohol and/or other drugs, mental health, process addictions, and eating disorders. The CRP is not a treatment program; rather, the focus is on creating a network of recovery support services that promote the personal, academic, and professional goals of students in recovery. 

Duties and Responsibilities:

Program Development and Coordination

Develop and assess programs, trainings, and initiatives that educate the campus on substance use/misuse, harm reduction, recovery, medical amnesty, and bystander intervention; use evidence-informed practices to guide programming around high-risk times such as spring break, St. Patrick's Day, 4/20, Halloween, etc.; partner to grow late-night, substance-free program offerings; oversee campus prescription drug take-back events and develop a plan to increase access to medication disposal materials and medication lock-boxes; create campaigns and large-scale initiatives to raise awareness about substance misuse, campus policies, bystander intervention, and social norms.

Training & Facilitation

Plan and facilitate trainings focused on substance misuse prevention and harm reduction. Current offerings include bystander trainings, alcohol education, cannabis education, opioid overdose prevention, Narcan, and recovery allyship; assist with training of interns conducting motivational interviewing sessions for students with alcohol and cannabis sanctions utilizing BASICS & CASICS education models; identify, train, and supervise peer leaders to support the recovery community, including eight weekly groups, workshops, community socials, and retreats; facilitate one-on-one support for students in recovery, as needed, to assist in building recovery capital, preventing return to use or distress, and referring to treatment.

Collaboration

Serve on committees focused on enhancing student wellbeing including Be Well (UTC's campus-wide wellbeing collaborative), Mocs Recovery Advisory Board, and UT System's Collegiate Recovery Collaborative; build and maintain partnerships with on-campus and off-campus organizations; attend meetings and events in the community to promote the substance misuse prevention and recovery services available at UTC.

Assessment & Reporting

Remain current on best practices in college health promotion with a focus on AOD and recovery assessments and interventions; identify short- and long-term goals measuring achievement in substance misuse prevention and recovery services; construct and manage evaluations of all programs and activities; assist with reports, including outcomes pertaining to AOD prevention, UTC's Biennial Review, and the Center for Wellbeing's end of year report; compile data for grant reports, as required.

Communication

Create content and manage the Mocs Recovery Instagram account. Assist with content and management of the Center for Wellbeing Instagram account; develop educational digital and print materials to educate the campus about substance misuse, recovery, bystander intervention, and resources; update campus communication portals & offices to reflect upcoming meetings, programs, and initiatives; as requested, provide updates on substance misuse prevention efforts to administration, donors, and campus partners.

The ideal candidate will possess the following:

Knowledge of best practices and trends with regard to substance misuse prevention and collegiate recovery programs Knowledge of substance use disorder prevention, treatment, and recovery Knowledge of issues specific to young adult substance use Knowledge of various pathways to recovery and employing a recovery-oriented continuum of care Ability to develop, implement, coordinate, and evaluate programs Ability to research, benchmark, develop, and present trainings
