Help Build Resiliency and Success in Our Students – and Enhance your Curriculum!

From Forrest Seymour, Counseling Center:

The Counseling Center is eager to collaborate around a wide array of programming in your classroom. Our staff counselors, interns, and peer educators are prepared to teach modules on many topics (see details below), or we would be happy to collaborate with you on a presentation that meets the needs of your students, course, and schedule.

In response to research showing that emotional health issues play such an important role in students’ academic and social success in higher education, the Counseling Center is pleased to offer a variety of programs, workshops, and experiential activities for students, staff and faculty. We have prepackaged programs that our staff can deliver at your convenience, or we are happy to collaborate around developing a program that meets your and the students’ needs, all designed to be effective, informative, and entertaining experiences that expand the support available on our campus. Please let us know in what ways we can work together to ensure our students’ experiences at Keene State are challenging and bountiful.
