Dixon Lodge is the home of Oregon State University's recovery living community, a partnership with the school's Collegiate Recovery Community (CRC).
This community provides holistic, recovery-specific support to the students who live there. The community includes single- and dual-occupancy rooms, a community kitchen for residents, and a dynamic programming space.
In an effort to make living in the on-campus recovery community affordable and accessible, significant funds have been allocated towards providing housing and dining scholarships to those who live in this new community.
