Please join us today for a midweek break and recharge with Wellness Wednesdays hosted by the Counseling, Disability and Health Services Department.
Today's topic is "Substance Abuse," in recognition of October being National Substance Abuse Awareness Month. A Registered Nurse from our Health Services Department will be joined by the Monroe County IMPACT team to talk to students about support services, resources and guidance. Students can gain a deeper understanding of substance use disorders, the risks associated with drug and alcohol use, and the realities of addiction, helping to reduce stigma. Please join us in spreading awareness and helping create a supportive campus culture for all. The following is a brief description of what to expect:
- Wellness Activities: engage in mindfulness activities, stress-relief exercises and creative fun
- Therapy Dogs: Enjoy some cuddle time with our favorite furry friends
- Wellness Resources: Pick up some educational material and free resources to help you stay informed and balanced
- Self-Care Giveaways: Snag some great self-care giveaways to help you unwind and relax
These workshops are a great way to take a healthy break from your busy schedules and connect with fellow students in a relaxed, supportive environment fostering a sense of community here at MCC. We hope to see you there!
