Mental Health Awareness:

As a result of a campus event, "It's Your life, 411," a team of professionals was assembled to assist students.  The program was named "It's OK to Ask for Help."  BCCC has subsequently developed campaigns to stamp out stigma, and student involvement in the wellness center has ignited a passion to reach out and help others.  Click here to see the interview.
