Abstract
This paper describes the preliminary findings of the implementation of recovery colleges - a strengths-based, peer-driven, mental health learning model in five postsecondary institutions in Canada. Using exploratory methods and a sample of 124 participants completing a pre-participation and 72 completing a post-participation survey we aimed to answer two research questions; (1) Who is accessing the postsecondary recovery college? and (2) How is recovery college participation impacting students individually and interpersonally? Addressing the first research question, 80% were female students, between the ages of 18–25 years (73%), and 73% were in their second year of study. With regards to the second research question, recovery college participation improved students’ knowledge of coping and life skills and supported their mental health and wellbeing. Results provide evidence of impact of recovery college in postsecondary settings and may contribute to mental health system transformation to explore novel ways to support emerging adults’ mental health.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
