The focus of this Water Cooler Chat will be Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and the potential benefits of using it as a guide for prevention and recovery work. Participants will discuss the consequences of when students' basic needs are unmet and how this can affect the effectiveness of education, programs, and interventions. Additionally, participants will address ways to incorporate fundamental needs such as safety and security into prevention and recovery work on campus.
