Health Education and Other Services
Education, workshops and groups can help to reduce or eliminate negative outcomes associated with drug and alcohol use. We integrate motivational interviewing and harm reduction strategies in our services.
Motivational interviewing is a person-centered approach that addresses someone’s mixed feelings to change an aspect of their substance use. Harm reduction is helpful for those who do not wish to abstain from substances, but prefer to reduce frequency and any harms associated with use.
Here are some examples of the services provided at the Wellness Center.
One-on One session with a health educator, where students can learn more about drugs or talk about their own drug use expectations, behaviors, triggers and stress. You can request a one-on-one session here
Group workshops or lectures, where students can learn about drugs with classmates or friends. You can request a workshop here
SMART Recovery on-line group meetings for those who want to abstain from or stop using alcohol or drugs. SMART Recovery meetings can be found on Mybar.
