PEER COUNSELING PROGRAM
![]()
The Peer Counseling program provides assistance to students who may experience the “routine” academic and personal stress and strains of college life. Recognizing that students in similar “peer groups” greatly influence each other, trained peer counselors serve as a comfortable “helping resource”. Student peer counselors serve as a greater means of “outreach” to the larger student population for the Counseling andPlacement Office. On-going training sessions are developed to keep Peer Counselors skills up-to-date.
