CWU Resources 04
Central Washington University strives to be a welcoming, inclusive institution that makes education accessible to all. We have many resources available for our campus community, but it can often be overwhelming not knowing where to go or who to reach out to for help. The CWU Suicide Prevention Team’s goal is to remove barriers to mental health care, and promote a culture of openness and understanding. Together, we have created this accessible, reliable guide to showcase campus resources that support your mental health and wellbeing. Whether you use this for yourself, a loved one, a student, or want to learn more about what CWU and the surrounding community have to offer you, this guide can empower you with knowledge to help you make informed choices. WE’RE HERE FOR YOUR FUTURE
