Student Wellness

Student wellness resources are offered to help enrolled Palo Verde College Students cope with the stressors that may be impacting their academic career, or educational goals. These stressors can result in a lack of motivation, depression, anxiety, and challenges in family and relationships. Many people experience times in their lives when some type of outside assistance would be helpful to look at a situation more objectively, explore options, and identify new strategies or solutions. TimelyCare is a free Mental Health resource, that also offers a variety of other student health services found in the TimelyCare app.
