Community Wellbeing

Community Wellbeing

At UWC-USA, we believe physical health, mental health, and academic success all go together, leading to healthy lives as agents of change throughout the world. In recent years, we have partnered with national experts and institutions to modernize our student supports, maintain clear systems and processes, and prioritize mental and physical wellbeing. This helps our students grow in and outside the classroom.

We offer a wide range of physical and mental health support, from on-site health clinics to our telehealth counseling services. We have also partnered with Sunrise Clinics, a primary care group that provides both medical and mental health services, to install a medical kiosk on campus that offers tele-primary care and behavioral health support services from Guadalupe Hospital and Sunrise Clinic providers.

We have established new partnerships with leading organizations, including local organizations, national experts, and The Jed Foundation, a leading non-profit in teen and young adult emotional health, to continue building a sustainable, systematic approach to crisis management and mental health support. These partnerships are leading to stronger staffing on campus, as well as expanded services to better meet the needs of students in their daily lives.

UWC-USA also offers students a wide variety of outlets for physical exercise, including yoga, squash, and wilderness exploration.

Community wellbeing is a top priority for UWC-USA. All of our offerings are grounded with a straightforward objective in mind: keeping our students healthy in all aspects of their lives.
