The College of Wellness
The College of Wellness has joined the global movement of providing mental health education towards wellness to both members and Direct Service providers The College of Wellness, formerly the Recovery College, was established in 2016 by staff in a public health care setting to provide mental health education opportunities. By providing educational opportunities for both direct care providers and persons in services, the College of Wellness promotes a consistent approach to wellness. By providing educational opportunities to both staff and persons served, we are able to fill in gaps in the public health system and staff training.
