en-US This group meets every Monday, excluding campus closures/holidays.

Meeting is OPEN to all UCF students, faculty, staff, and community members.

Self Management And Recovery Training (SMART Recovery) is an evidenced-informed recovery method grounded in Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), that supports people with substance dependencies or problem behaviors to:

  1. Build and maintain motivation
  2. Cope with urges and cravings
  3. Manage thoughts, feelings and behaviors
  4. Live a balanced life

SMART Recovery focuses on the addictive behaviors, not the substance – meaning they are suitable for any problematic or addictive behavior – including but not limited to alcohol, drugs, gambling, tobacco, as well as eating disorders.

US United States
en-US Too often, unused prescription drugs find their way into the wrong hands or our waterways, which is dangerous and often tragic. That's why UCF is joining thousands of people from across the country in cleaning out their medicine cabinets and turning in — safely and anonymously — a record amount of prescription drugs through an event sponsored by the Drug Enforcement Administration. 

The UCF Police Department and UCF Health Student Health Services are once again joining forces to host an official collection site for this important initiative. Clean out your medicine cabinets and find their tent on the Student Union west patio to drop them off — no questions asked.

What can be dropped off:

  • Prescription medications (both controlled and uncontrolled)
  • Non-prescription medications (OTC)
  • Vitamins, supplements and herbals
  • Medications for pets
  • Electronic cigarette cartridges (be sure to remove the battery)

What can NOT be dropped off:

  • IV Fluid bags
  • Syringes, needles or other sharps
  • Oxygen tanks
  • Liquids and creams
  • Electronic cigarette devices/batteries


If you are unable to drop off during this event, please note that UCF has two secure drop-off boxes available year-round (Pharmacy and Student Union).
