Community Resources for Veterans
Mental Health and Counseling Services
The Department of Mental Health and Counseling Services at WCC is a comprehensive college counseling center. As such, DMHCS provides a full array of clinical services to students, as well as non-clinical services to students and the broader College community. In addition, the Veterans Resource Office partners with community-based organizations to provide referrals for you and your family members for private confidential, supportive counseling services in most cases at no charge for the uninsured.
