As part of our mission to serve UA students by helping them achieve academic success and personal growth, we offer outreach programming focused on their well-being to our entire campus community. Our goal is to increase education about mental health, student well-being, and services on campus. As with our other services we work from within a developmental and contextual perspective; that is, identifying and working within student needs as they appear in context and on their path of ideal growth and functioning.

We offer outreach programming on any topic relevant to mental health that has an impact on the success and well-being of our students. Formats include lectures, presentations, panels, events, displays, and more. Programs are provided by seasoned mental health professionals with over 250 years of collective experience.
