Our Mission
STUDENT COUNSELING SERVICES
The Morehouse College Counseling Center assists students in the accomplishment of tasks that are essential to their personal and educational development. The Center's programming is designed to facilitate students' retention and graduation by providing quality, time-effective services: through individual and group counseling; outreach services; individual, organizational, and departmental consultation; crisis intervention; training; and research.
Counseling Center staff are involved in community building, prevention, and education, and thus collaborate and consult with other departments to improve the interrelationships of all areas of this urban college. To this end, the Center promotes the understanding and integration of multicultural issues and African American Psychology in all services and programs. The Center is dedicated to building a college community that permits all its members to grow and to be successful in an environment of equity, respect, and inclusion. -
