Rave Reviews From Our Students
“We are happy to have someone listen to us rather than solve our problems for us. We want to know that someone cares but isn’t a caretaker.”
“[NMSW] is a place we can come and share things without judgment.”
“Knowing [faculty, staff and student facilitators] care is so important to my not giving up when I felt overwhelmed.”
