Mental Wellbeing
Mental Health Outreach
Mental health affects everyone. The Well and our partners in the Division of Student Health, Well-being & Safety provide programming that emphasizes the importance of students’ mental health needs. We are home to UCR Active Minds – a nationally recognized student group that works to de-stigmatize mental health issues on college campuses.
