Outreach
The University Counseling Center (UCC) provides outreach services to students, faculty, and staff of the University of Mississippi and surrounding community.
These outreach workshops and presentations focus on a variety of mental health issues and topics such as adjusting to away-from-home life, forming healthy habits, and building healthy relationships. We also provide psycho-educational programs based on the needs of the Ole Miss community.
Our workshops and wellness events represent our commitment to proactively engage with University students, the greater Oxford community, and the communities of our regional campuses.
Our goal is to increase education about mental health, encourage students well-being, and promote UCC services on campus. We offer outreach programming on almost every topic relevant to mental health and the success our students and faculty.
Formats include presentations, panels, event support, displays, and “tabling” (setting up and manning tables at your location with pamphlets and UCC merchandise).
