The Wellness Center staff address a wide variety of issues such as: 

How do I refer a student to the Wellness Center?

Students can be referred to the Wellness Center by contacting the student's Guidance Counselor or School Psychologist. In addition, students can also self-refer or refer friends through their School Counselor or by coming directly to the Wellness Center. Althought the staff in the Wellness Center are bound by confidentiality, there are still limitations. In the event that a student reports that they want to harm themselves, they want to harm others, or they report that someone is being abused/neglected, the staff would be mandated to report this information.
