Substance Use Intervention Team (SUIT) is an individual educational intervention program for all Auburn students who may want to reduce or end their substance use or who have been found in violation of an alcohol or drug related policy (typically, the second or third violation). The SUIT program is designed to help students make informed substance use decisions and to reduce their risks for substance-related harm.

To schedule a SUIT consultation appointment, please call our office at 334-844-1528.​​​

Trained graduate-level facilitators and professionals conduct SUIT sessions under the supervision of a licensed clinician. Students enrolled in the SUIT program will have individual meetings for Case Management and Relapse Prevention each week.​The SUIT Case Manager will assist the student in the completion of the program and serve as a connector to resources on and off campus. During relapse prevention sessions, students will work with a facilitator to identify triggers for substance use, build coping and refusal skills, and explore underlying mechanisms of substance use and addiction.​Facilitators strive to create a non-judgmental environment for honest conversation about alcohol and substance use, and all SUIT sessions are confidential. No information will be disclosed to outside parties without a student’s written consent.

There are no fees associated with SUIT appointments for students who have been sanctioned to complete the program or students who have self-referred. There is a no-show fee of $40 for a missed intake appointment and $20 for a missed follow up appointment.​The only fee associated with the program is the cost of the weekly random drug screens ($41) at the Auburn University Medical Clinic.The only fee associated with the program is the cost of the weekly random drug screens ($41) at the Auburn University Medical Clinic.
