Explore This Section

The Wellness Resource Center offers a variety of workshops to help students develop skills in areas like stress management, communication, healthy relationship and sexual engagement, harm reducation, and bystander intervention.

We're happy to conduct these workshops with student groups and organizations.

We can also work with you to develop workshops that meet your needs or interests. 

 

Block 5 Workshops and Programs

Peer Support is a nonjudgmental and accepting space where students support other students. Students can discuss issues and anxieties with other students, learn about campus resources, and learn strategies for maintaining their personal well-being and engaging in self-care. No one understands the block plan stressors better than someone living through it, so come in and talk to someone that can understand.

Some of the topics our Peer Support team can help you with include healthy sexuality, harm reduction approaches, integrating mindfulness practices, stress management skills, sleep habits, interpersonal disputes, minor health and hygiene concerns, and body acceptance.

Peer Support is not crisis intervention and cannot replace necessary counseling or medical services. Peer Support talks students through difficult topics while maintaining privacy and respect.
