Drug and Alcohol Abuse Prevention (Students)

Cheyney University is committed to fostering a safe, healthy, and supportive campus environment. Our Drug and Alcohol Abuse Prevention Program (DAAPP) provides students with clear policies, education, and resources to help prevent substance misuse and promote well-being.

Cheyney University maintains policies that outline expectations for student behavior regarding alcohol and drug use, along with the consequences of policy violations. These policies are designed to protect the safety and success of our student community.
