Testimonials

The Well and their Mental Health Educator, Connie Marmolejo, have been key partners when working with student's mental health, food security, and well being. We are able to partner through multiple programs such as Feminist Fridays, the R'Pantry, R'Time, and Silence Backpacking.

Nathaly Martinez

Student Life and Development Specialist

The Well has been such a great partner in ASPB’s mission in providing a safe environment at our events. Marisol and Devon have been key partners in helping us build a new initiative called “Enjoy the Experience”. This initiative is to bring awareness of the importance of consent and to refrain from the consumption drugs and alcohol so that everyone attending can enjoy the experience. They have also helped ASPB immensely by creating our first ever Safety Module for all ASPB major concerts, which has made an impact on UCR Culture. ASPB is so grateful to have such an amazing and caring partner like The Well.

Julie Chobdee

Wellness Program Coordinator/UCR Healthy Campus Co-Chair

In my two years here at UCR, the Well became one of the closest campus partner for the International Students & Scholars. The staff truly care about the well-being of students and assisted us in providing quality programming. One of such collaborations is R’Time, a program that provides a space for international women to gain support, develop safe space, and enjoy some relaxing time together. We look forward to more joint programing and close collaboration in the future.
