The SCC Counselors extend waves of gratitude to all staff and faculty members who continue to prioritize and support the mental health and well-being of our students.
Your care, compassion, and attentiveness make a meaningful difference. Thank you for being an essential part of our students’ support system.
If you’d like to feel more prepared to respond to a student experiencing a mental health or substance use challenge, keep an eye out for an upcoming announcement about the fall quarter Mental Health First Aid training.
