Association of Recovery in Higher Education: ARHE

Nov 4

A father’s loss. A daughter’s legacy. A future we can change. Mike Ortoll lost his daughter, Christine, to a drug overdose. While she was in college, recovery support was not available on her campus. Mike has turned his family’s loss into advocacy for students who deserve connection and support. We are grateful to Mike for sharing Christine’s story. We cannot change what happened to Christine, but together we can help change what is available to other students. Support ARHE’s work to strengthen collegiate recovery. 💜 Support collegiate recovery: bit.ly/donate2arhe With heartfelt gratitude to Mike Ortoll for sharing Christine’s story. With gratitude to Christine Ortoll Charity and Fire Pillar Entertainment for creating and sharing this footage. #CollegiateRecovery #RecoveryInHigherEducation #ARHE
