The Peer Counseling Program is a team of student volunteers dedicated to helping other students experiencing emotional problems.
Recognizing that students often feel most comfortable talking with friends about life issues, Peer Counselors receive extensive training on how to help other students. They are not therapists, but act as friends who are knowledgeable about the kinds of emotional issues affecting students and campus resources.
