The SHIFT List

A Substance Use Safety Series for Student Organizations

Let's have a different conversation about substance use.

We hope to shift the culture around substance use from one that is an expected part of the college experience to one that is grounded in harm reduction. This is not an abstinence-based program—rather we engage students in discussions about how to help a friend, host and attend safer events, and make more mindful decisions when it comes to substance use. The SHIFT List is a one-stop shop for student organizations to access resources and workshops that empower you to:

Learn the basics about substance use and misuse.

Build skills to minimize risk and promote healthy social experiences.

Discuss ways to shift the campus culture toward care and well-being.

The SHIFT List is the product of a collaborative effort among SHIFT, the Longhorn Wellness Center (LWC), the Center for Students in Recovery (CSR), Sorority and Fraternity Life (SFL), and UT students.

NAVIGATE THE SHIFT LIST

Step 1 Schedule a one-on-one meeting with a SHIFT staff member to learn more about the program and how your student organization can participate.
