Overview
The Mental Health Peer Program (MHPP) at CSUCI is the bridge between students and Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) clinicians. We aim to help students feel supported and comfortable when seeking help for their academic success and well-being. Through providing free outreach and private drop-in peer coaching to CSUCI students, the MHPP provides wrap-around support to address student’s comprehensive core needs in a safe, accessible, and inclusive atmosphere.
