“I graduated in 2012 with an associate’s in business management and a certificate in small business development. I went on to open my own small business and have found great success in my career. I love what I do and I owe a lot of my success to the time I spent at EMCC!”
Nothing matters more for your well-being and academic success than your mental health.
Some common reasons for seeking mental health support include:
We know that many students face barriers to seeking mental health help, including:
