MDC is deeply committed to supporting student mental well-being by offering comprehensive resources that go beyond traditional counseling services. Licensed mental health professionals provide confidential, one-on-one counseling sessions across all campuses, ensuring students have timely access to qualified care. Through the Mantra Hub, students can also connect virtually with licensed providers, access self-guided wellness tools, and receive ongoing support tailored to their schedules. In addition, the College coordinates workshops, peer-support initiatives, crisis referral pathways, and wellness education programs that equip students with practical coping skills and knowledge. By combining direct counseling, innovative digital services like the Mantra Hub, and preventive community-based supports, the College fosters a campus culture where mental health is prioritized as an essential part of student success.
